Afilias' James Galvin will be moderating a panel entitled: e-Crimes and Malicious Use in the DNS: Implications and Observations at the IGF USA conference to be held at the Georgetown Law Center.

This session covers some of very real time examples of the fight against DNS‐related abuse such as phishing, malware and fraudulent uses of domain names. The panel will also comment on the scope and growth expected in various kinds of fraud and abuse as the domain name space continues to grow exponentially.

Afilias' James Galvin will be the main speaker at this Information Systems Security Association event on DNSSEC. The seminar will highlight the advances being made in DNS security, particularly in the adoption and availability of DNSSEC, the DNS Security Extensions.

DUBLIN, IRELAND - 1 June 2010 - Today Afilias, a leading provider of Internet infrastructure services, announced that its Chief Technology Officer, Ram Mohan, has been named to IDG's InfoWorld CTO 25 Awards for his work and innovation in deploying Domain Name Security Extensions (DNSSEC) in the Internet's domain name system (DNS).

The deployment of Domain Security Extensions (DNSSEC) has crossed another milestone this month with the publication of DURZ (deliberately unvalidatable root zone) in all DNS root servers on 5 May 2010.

While this change was virtually invisible to most Internet users, this event and the remaining testing that will occur over these next two months will dictate the ultimate success of DNSSEC deployment across the Internet.
