Zaid AlBanna serves as a senior research engineer on the industry standards and technology team within the chief technology officer organization. Since joining Verisign in 2020, he has been focused on Internet Protocol (IP) standards development. Prior to joining Verisign, he worked for telecommunications providers and manufacturers on a variety of networking-related projects in the areas of design, quality assurance, and operations of distributed systems, IP transport protocols, and gigabit networking. He is also a contributing member of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
