ICANN's determination of the org's definition for DNS Abuse is based on the work product of GAC and the base gTLD Registry Agreement. Thus, ICANN considers DNS security threats to be limited to attacks involving phishing, malware, botnet command and control, pharming, and spam as a vector.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/update-on-icanns-dns-security-threat-mitigation-program-19-7-2021-en Update on DNS Security Threats, ICANN Org]</ref> As recently as [[ICANN 71]], the ICANN board was criticized by members of the [[ALAC]], the [[BC]], and other [[Internet Governance]] bodies for not doing enough to steward contracted parties and non-contracted parties toward involvement in reducing abuse.
