Hi Rafik,

Thank you for sharing this!

If it would be helpful, I'm happy to start a google doc with these questions and input some initial ideas based on NCSG's previous submissions? There are certainly areas that will need further discussion, but having some things on paper ahead of Mumbai, particularly given the deadline is 20 March (post-ICANN85), could help us identify the priority areas for discussion during ICANN85.

A few doc's that would be helpful include:

 *
NCSG's DNS Abuse Position Paper<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1g1AtfROHirQpmRzo1arYvpyexO_72HHISNSERSJ-zAA/edit?tab=t.0>
 *
NCSG Comment - Preliminary Issue Report on a Policy Development Process on DNS Abuse Mitigation<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1skTPFr6wHM92NKnZbm07RbHBncUiBRt8EVCOaxr5Pt8/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.exzv2lfyrwqe>

I also know a number of folks have been very active on this topic, including @farzaneh badii<mailto:farzaneh.badii at gmail.com> @Bruna Martins dos Santos<mailto:bruna.mrtns at gmail.com> and many others I'm sure I'm forgetting. Would be great to have their expertise included in the response.

Best,

Michaela

hi all,

Dear SG/C Leaders,

We are writing to you on behalf of the GNSO DNS Abuse Mitigation (DNSAM) Policy Development Process (PDP) Working Group (WG). This WG is tasked with developing policy recommendations for a framework requiring registrars to proactively pivot to investigate domains linked to malicious actors, particularly in cases of domain registrations used for DNS Abuse campaigns.

In accordance with GNSO’s PDP requirements, we are seeking early written input on the topic from each Supporting Organization, Advisory Committee, and GNSO’s Stakeholder Group / Constituency. Each group has been invited to participate in the PDP. Kindly note that the written input is completely voluntary.

In order to ensure that the WG receives your input in a timely manner and that your input is incorporated into a summary document for the WG’s consideration, we are requesting a response no later than 20 March 2026. Input received after this date may be introduced into the discussion separately by your representatives, by ICANN support staff, or by me as the relevant topic is discussed.

The WG’s scope of work is defined through a series of questions presented in the WG’s Charter. The list of questions and key issues to consider soliciting community input are attached for your convenience. To the extent possible, you are requested to write your responses to the individual questions in the attached document and return via email to the GNSO Secretariat gnso-secs at icann.org<mailto:gnso-secs at icann.org>. It is not necessary to answer every question, and you are also welcome to provide any other input and/or background information that you deem helpful to the deliberations.

As with all GNSO PDPs, there will be additional opportunities for community input as the work progresses.

Thank you very much and we look forward to receiving your input.

On behalf of the DNSAM PDP1 WG,

Paul McGrady

Preliminary Chair, DNSAM PDP1
