Nominet, the .uk registry, has announced plans to exceed the requirements of the “Internet Domain Registry (Prescribed Practices and Prescribed Requirements) Regulations 2024” in its efforts to combat DNS abuse.
The legislation mandates actions against phishing, malware, and other forms of DNS abuse, while also ensuring domains do not link to child exploitation content. Nominet aims to go further by:
• Reviewing its terms and conditions to ensure the effective implementation of the regulations.
• Introducing a new policy to clarify the management of abused domains.
• Promoting a culture of proactive harm reduction, involving collaboration across its departments to detect and prevent abuse early.
• Strengthening industry collaboration with other registries and registrars.
Nominet has committed to sharing more details about the specific policy changes and their implementation soon. These initiatives underscore its dedication to enhancing security and abuse prevention within the .uk namespace.
