==ISACA and ICANN==

IN 2009, Peter Wood, member of ISACA’s Conference Committee and founder of First Base Technologies warned that [[ICANN]]'s plan to support non-Latin characters, including Mandarin, Arabic, Hindu and Cyrillic in implementing the Internationalized Domain Names ([[IDN]]s will increase consumer fraud and cyber security attacks such as phising. In his comments Wood explained, "Glyphs representing certain characters from different scripts might appear similar or even identical. For example, in many fonts, Cyrillic lowercase A ("a") is indistinguishable from Latin lowercase A ("a"). An unscrupulous host site can use this visual ambiguity to pretend to be another site and take advantage of site visitors.”
