Internet Integrity
Communities to Promote Internet Transparency, Diversity and Best Practices
There is no single entity that can “lay down the law” for the Internet and its use. Better coordination of discussions and practices, along with collaboration between stakeholders in the Internet ecosystem and beyond, is necessary to ensure a fully functional —and safer — Internet of the future. Collaboration is the way forward.
GCA’s Internet Integrity Program aims to bring together key players in Internet infrastructure operations, including ecosystem institutions, network operator groups, and ISPs and other infrastructure operators, as well as adjacent industries, in order to identify top priorities for addressing cybersecurity issues that cannot be solved by any single actor or subset of actors independently.
Our initiatives use the three building blocks of the Internet —names, numbers, and routes— as a guiding principle and the establishment of communities of action as a preferred approach. Creating trust in the domain name space, fighting malicious unwanted traffic, and enhancing routing security will be some of our challenges in the years to come.
