at ICANN 84<br>
(Dublin)<br>
<br>
The ICANN Tech Working Group is again planning a technical workshop at<br>
the ICANN 84 meeting (Dublin)<br>
<br>
As the meeting will be hybrid so will be vTechDay which is currently<br>
penciled in for Monday, 2025-10-27 for blocks:<br>
<br>
Block 2 10:45 - 12:15<br>
Block 3 13:15 - 14:30<br>
Block 4 15:00 - 16:00<br>
Block 5 16:30 - 17:30<br>
<br>
All times are local (Dublin) time.<br>
<br>
We shall try to accommodate the time zone of virtual presenters in<br>
setting the agenda.<br>
<br>
The TechDay workshop has been a part of ICANN meetings since 2006 and<br>
has provided a forum for both experienced and new people to meet,<br>
present and discuss technical topics related to registry and DNS work<br>
and security.<br>
<br>
We are specially interested in:<br>
<br>
1. DNSSEC<br>
<br>
2. DNS Abuse Prevention and Mitigation Tools<br>
<br>
3. Best (security) management practices, lines of defense, to<br>
protect Registries from bad actors, attacks or malware, or even<br>
reports of failures<br>
<br>
4. Open Source Tools that have been found helpful<br>
<br>
a) We would in particular like to hear about git based DNS zone<br>
management, especially simple setups usable as example for other<br>
(smaller) (cc|g)TLDs.<br>
<br>
b) We would also like to hear about further RDAP client<br>
implementations for the command line, devices and libraries.<br>
<br>
If there are enough proposals we might have round tables.<br>
<br>
5. In addition, we welcome suggestions for additional topics<br>
<br>
<br>
The ccNSO's DNS Abuse Committee has expressed an interest in organizng a<br>
round table looking at detection/end-to-end case studies from a<br>
(cc)TLD perspective and we are proposing Block 2 (ie 75 minutes<br>
(including the opening remarks)).<br>
<br>
Interest in participating should be expressed by email to eitheror all of<br>
