As a global leader in penetration testing and network security, NCC Group is uniquely positioned to not only escrow registry data per ICANN’s requirements for new TLD applicants, but to provide a comprehensive risk management solution for all registry operators.

'''NCC Group''' claims to be the world’s largest provider of Enterprise Risk Management solutions, and they are especially well known in ICANN circles as a leading [[Data Escrow]] provider. Their data escrow division became their largest business in terms of both revenue and profits after [[Rob Cotton]] was brought in as Finance Director in 2000. He also led the company through its opening on the London Stock Exchange, and led a secondary management buy-out and was appointed as Chief Executive of NCC Group Limited.<ref>[http://www.nccgroup.us/about-us.aspx About Us, NCCGroup.us]</ref>

==History==

 

==Background==

Since 1998, [[ICANN]] has served to help control and manage the Internet’s naming system. Recently, however, ICANN has been thrust into the public spotlight with its work concerning the introduction of new [[gTLD|generic top-level domains]]. As part of the TLD application process, applicants must meet many different criteria, one of which is a requirement to establish daily transfers of WHOIS data to a reputable escrow agent.
