NetBeacon’s core functions are designed to make it easier for registrars to receive and process abuse claims. By providing a single venue, with standardized fields and evidence requirements, NetBeacon aims to improve the quality of reports. Each report includes fields for the domain in question, the type of abuse, a description of abuse, date of abuse, and any additional evidence. The Institute accepts DNS Abuse reports through three core mechanisms. Reports can be submitted via NetBeacon’s website (www.netbeacon.org).

In April 2023 came the second Annual Report from the Institute, which included content about NetBeacon Reporter. It said that the reception of NetBeacon was overwhelmingly positive, with multiple references from the [[GAC|ICANN Governmental Advisory Committee]], and positive press. Although report recipients, primarily registrars, were generally well served by the service, there was also the need more features to help abuse reporters. As such, new features started being developed to:
 +
 
 +
* Allow registries to use NetBeacon to distribute reports to their registrar channel
 +
* Enable the verification of DNS Abuse reporters
 +
* Enable branded reports with boilerplate text for verified abuse reporters.
