<br/>[[ICANN]]'s job is to ensure the [[SSR|stability, security, and resiliency]] of [[The Domain Name System|the Domain Name System]] (DNS). The stability and security of the DNS is undermined in a [[DNS Abuse|variety of ways]], which ICW Editor [[Jessica Alice Rivers|Jessica]] has been working to catalog. In addition, she has been focusing on [[DNS Abuse Responses|responses to abuse]] from [[ICANN]], such as [[DAAR]] and [[SAC115]], [[Cybersecurity|other institutions in the private]], and inter/government agencies, such as the [[Budapest Convention|European Council]], [[FBI]], [[CISA]], and [[NIST]].
 
The stability of the DNS is the central focus of [[SSAC]] and enshrined in the [[ICANN Bylaws]] in multiple places. ICANN's performance of this critical task is also [[ICANN Reviews#Specific Reviews|periodically reviewed]] as mandated by Article 4.6 of the bylaws. The [[First Security, Stability, and Resiliency Review]] took place in 2010, while the [[Second Security, Stability, and Resiliency Review]] is ongoing.

"Review fatigue" has been a persistent complaint within the ICANN Community. As our overlap timeline shows, there have been very few points in ICANN's history when there were no reviews, or only one review, in progress. The [[Third Accountability and Transparency Review]] has addressed this review glut head on. Among other reforms, the ATRT 3 team made the following recommendations:
* Convert organizational reviews to "continuous improvement processes" within each [[Supporting Organizations|SO]] & [[Advisory Committee|AC]];
* Utilize the feedback and findings of these continuous improvement processes, as well as annual meetings of the SOs and ACs, to inform a new, "holistic" review that engages with the ICANN organization as a whole; and
* Reform or remove most of the [[ICANN Reviews#Specific Reviews|reviews required under Article 4.6]] of the ICANN Bylaws.


These changes would represent a massive transformation to ICANN's review practices. The ICANN Board, while accepting the proposals in principle, has requested ICANN staff to develop plans for pilot programs for continuous improvement and the holistic review. The modifications to the Article 4.6 specific reviews, because they would require amending the Bylaws, are subject to community buy-in and support.

ICANNWiki is a not-for-profit organization supporting the collaborative development of articles about ICANN and Internet Governance-related topics, currently featuring 8,700 entries. It aims to provide neutral information that takes all perspectives into consideration. Want to help? Request an account today! ICANNWiki is independent of ICANN. Any donations made to us are used only to maintain this platform.

Current Focus

Our focus this season is: ccTLDs. Our community is working together on surfacing information about these stakeholders, including going over documents, blog posts, Working Groups (including the already great article on Working Groups!), and all other relevant information.

Where to start

Getting started is as simple as requesting an account, which will be approved as long as it does not appear to be intended for spam or malice. Then, make sure to read our short content guide to get a feel for what belongs in the wiki. You may also want to have a look at some data source suggestions on where to find reliable data. That's it, happy editing!
