The Domain Name Association (DNA) -an Internet domain industry association -has published four voluntary practices for domain name registries and registrars, with the aim to 'help the domain name system (DNS) remain healthy as it grows and evolves'. The practices -developed as part of DNA's Healthy Domains Initiative and following a year-long consultation process with various parties -are focused on: addressing online security abuse (e.g., malware, phishing, pharming); enhancing child abuse mitigation systems; streamlining complaint handling from illegal or 'rogue' online pharmacies; and establishing a voluntary third party system for handling copyright infringement.
