Roberto hi!
thank you, my unspoken thoughts.
I think we should have mutual links in both newsletters.

Sincerely,

> We have specifically developed a DNS organization for the ccTLD .it, based
> on an anycast architecture to ensure the maximum resilience of our
> services. This anycast architecture exploits both a third-party service and
> a proprietary infrastructure of sixteen nodes, carefully positioned around
> the world to intercept the Internet traffic in order to guarantee the
> responsiveness and the reliability of ccTLD.it DNS.
>
> The impact of COVID-19 on the society and economy reflected also on domain
> name registrations. At the end of March, we received more than one thousand
> registrations related to COVID-19, and we are working closely with the
> public authorities to prevent abuses associated with these domain names.”

> The DNSSEC Implementation Relaunch in Finland
> By Juhani Juselius, Chief Specialist, Traficom
>
> For almost two decades, .FI has been taken care of by a relatively small
> but highly motivated team at the Finnish Transport and Communications
> Agency Traficom, a team that believes in secure and up-to-date technology.
> As part of that vision, .FI-root was signed in 2010 and the registration
> system was updated in 2011 in order to provide Domain Name System Security
> Extensions (DNSSEC) for the second level. From the very beginning, it was
> obvious to us that we did not want to charge any extra fees for this
> important add-on service.
>
> During the following years, we raised awareness via several activities
> such as presentations, media interviews, targeted events, user trainings,
> meetings with registrars, and master's theses supervision. I am quite sure
> that our message reached its target, and relevant people learned about
> DNSSEC.
>
> However, not much happened after all, despite all of our efforts in
> raising awareness. At the end of 2018, I was not aware of any .FI registrar
> offering DNSSEC for their customers: Only 1 percent of domains were signed,
> and none of the three big ISPs were validating Internet traffic in Finland.
> Those were very depressing numbers, especially when compared to the success
> of DNSSEC in the other Nordic countries.
>
> At the beginning of 2019, we asked our colleagues at the National Cyber
> Security Center for an opportunity to attend their meeting with the Finnish
> ISPs and talk about DNSSEC. In that meeting, we asked a question: "In your
> opinion, what should we do in order to boost DNSSEC usage in Finland?" They
> gave us the clearest answer so far: "We see DNSSEC as an important addition
> to security, but we don't want to do it alone. If it breaks something, our
> customers will switch to a non-DNSSEC supporting operator. We will
> implement DNSSEC if we don't need to do it alone." That was it! So simple.
> The idea of DNSSEC (re)Launch Day was born.
>
> There were two main components in our DNSSEC Launch Day campaign. The
> first one was a campaign website with a public list of registrars and ISPs
> committed to implementing DNSSEC by the date of Launch Day. This was
> important to convince participants that they were not alone in implementing
> DNSSEC. The second component was to get publicity. First, there were some
> articles in professional online media, but the real game-changer was a one
> and half page article in the main national newspaper, the Helsingin
> Sanomat: “DNSSEC and its low adoption rate in Finland.
> <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJTLyVVOtVtZeQZyB6YWcvMNOZldI6PDXAX_wBEZpUDnRjGNzyVsq3aOL27g3L32II9wJOz85wbXtXKIPwqsbv0UMwTqo62FhFcufNJ87mWg2WwTs_wB2nmdZxIBAwSpVHrSvLqEimKQ==&c=PPe1mayQesFZ1kaTiLumey_rpjKOODPcl65wnLZ1iQuRfVWYAmDBig==&ch=70ZWzEr1b84ta6-nWdl5BGbIb3vQHsOVeZ8BqSid4trRIj2DAApUrA==>”
> The article was straightforward, and it made people wake up.
>
> At the end of 2019, there were at least 250 registrars offering DNSSEC to
> their customers, 2 percent of domains were signed (low, but doubled in
> number), and the validation rate exceeded 90 percent, one of the highest in
> the world. In addition, our DNSSEC training session in cooperation with
> ICANN became very popular after the campaign, as people got interested in
> DNSSEC implementation more than ever before.
> A Virtual “ICANN Month” for Students at Lodz University
>
> With all face-to-face interactions with our community suspended due to the
> COVID-19 crisis, engagement with stakeholders poses a new type of
> challenge: How do we adapt our engagement to these new circumstances?
>
> Our good partner in Poland, The University of Lodz (UoL), adapted quickly
> to the new situation by opening their virtual doors for ICANN. Through this
> initiative, which we called the “ICANN Month”, we delivered online lectures
> to the students of Social Sciences Doctoral School at UoL for three
> consecutive weeks in April 2020. Each lecture attracted 25 to 50 students.
>
> ICANN Month was comprised of three lectures by ICANN org members. Patrick
> Jones opened the series by presenting on “Managing Identifiers and Domain
> Name System Privacy in an Insecure World”. He was followed by Adam Peake,
> who presented on ICANN and the Internet, touching upon the fundamental
> importance of the DNS and global multistakeholder policy. Lastly, Gabriella
> Schittek delivered a talk on ICANN, new generic top-level domains, and its
> rights protection mechanisms. The students were also invited to participate
> in ICANN via programs such as NextGen and Fellowship, and introduced to the
> ICANN Learn platform.
>
> We would like to extend our gratitude to the University of Lodz, and
> Joanna Kulesza from At-Large leadership for the openness and flexibility
> that made the ICANN Month possible.

> By Mikhail Anisimov, Head of Global Stakeholder Engagement for Eastern
> Europe and Central Asia
>
> My ICANN journey as an org member started on 16 March 2020, around the
> time when COVID-19 was becoming a global crisis. As the world began facing
> one of the toughest challenges in modern history, all planned activities
> came to a halt. Face-to-face meetings and community gatherings are now no
> longer viable in the foreseeable future. As a result, we are looking at
> different ways to continue our work.
>
> When I was training for long distance running fifteen years ago, my
> trainer had advised this: If I had to slow down, it would be a good
> opportunity to look around and see where I am, and check how others are
> doing. Now that we all have to slow down, there is time to look around, and
> at our community. For us at ICANN, we will continue engaging with you, and
> raising awareness about ICANN’s work via the remote tools available to us.
>
> Although many regional events have been postponed, the preparations
> continue for the ones later on in the year. Organizers are still discussing
> agendas and potential speakers. Currently, it seems things will get busy as
> of September. But until then, we can look at what work we have to do now,
> prioritize the regional needs in light of the new situation, and continue
> to work together.

> In my new role, I look forward to working with you, our stakeholders
> across Eastern Europe and Central Asia! Please do not hesitate to contact
