2008-10-18
Registry Internet Safety Group Formed to Develop Best Practices and Enhance
Overall Internet User Security
RESTON, VA ? (Marketwire - October 17, 2008) ? The Registry Internet
Safety Group ("RISG") is a global group of responsible Internet related
companies whose mission is to work collaboratively to combat Internet identity
theft; even though RISG is uniquely Registry focused, it includes both gTLD
(global Top Level Domain) and ccTLD (country code Top Level Domain) members.
RISG is intended to complement and not duplicate existing Internet security
efforts. Other RISG members include domain registrars, security vendors and law
enforcement agencies. RISG members and invited experts work together towards
improving Internet security, develop domain name industry best practices and
share data to improve overall Internet user security.
".ORG, the Public Interest Registry, initiated RISG to encourage industry
collaboration and proactively fight Internet identity theft," says Alexa Raad,
CEO of .ORG, The Public Interest Registry and elected Board Chair of RISG.
Charter members include .ORG, The Public Interest Registry; SIDN; Afilias
Limited; Nominet; NeuStar, Inc.; CNNIC; Cyveillance, Inc.; Symantec Corporation;
Shinkuro; GoDaddy.com, Inc.; MarkMonitor; Network Solutions; and the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. Members meet regularly to advance RISG goals and share
best practices.
"With the vast and varied makeup of the group, we will be able to evaluate
security efforts and best practices from many different aspects," says Roelof
Meijer, CEO of SIDN and Vice-Chair of RISG. "I look forward to the benefit our
mutual efforts can offer to the industry."
RISG membership is open to all companies that agree to the RISG goals of
security and corporate responsibility, and are able to contribute positively to
the effort. Any company interested in RISG membership should contact any RISG
member organization.
