ICANN Advisory: News Conference to Inaugurate Cyber Security Facility in Singapore
Prominent Internet organizations and the Singapore Government will answer journalists’ questions about the inauguration of a Singapore facility that will become the first of three hardened facilities that will bring an extra measure of security to Internet users around the globe.
Packet Clearing House (PCH) and ICANN will join the Singapore government at the news conference.
The three new facilities, located in Singapore; Zurich, Switzerland (still under construction) and San Jose, California, will provide cryptographic security using the recently deployed Domain Name System Security (DNSSEC) protocol.
