Online Safety and AI

As AI reshapes the digital world, online safety depends on balancing smarter protection with growing risks. From cybersecurity to privacy concerns, understanding AI's role can help users stay secure, informed, and resilient online.

Procedural Resilience or Technological Rigidity? Reassessing Article 19’s DNS Abuse Framework in the Post-MLAT Era

As cross-border cyber enforcement falters, critics argue Article 19's DNS abuse framework prioritizes procedural purity over user protection, leaving courts too slow to counter AI-driven phishing, rapid-flux domains, and increasingly automated online threats.

DNS Abuse Is Stealing India’s Youth: Fake Domains and the Job-Seeking Trap

Fake recruitment websites exploiting India's young job seekers are proliferating, exposing millions to identity theft, financial fraud and malware while regulators, registrars and digital literacy programs struggle to keep pace with a growing labor market.

Fixing Geofeed: From Self-Reported Data to Verified Trust

Geofeed data, long reliant on unverifiable self-assertions, faces mounting security risks. Integrating RPKI could transform it into a trusted, cryptographically validated infrastructure, strengthening routing integrity, regulatory compliance, and digital sovereignty across an increasingly contested internet.

Domain Security Report: Unicorns Show Strong Adoption in Key Domain Security Measures

Unicorn firms lead in DNS-based security adoption, signaling technical maturity, while Global 2000 rely on enterprise registrars. Gaps in redundancy and brand protection expose supply chain risks as cyberattacks intensify across industries globally today.

Why Africa’s Cybersecurity Problem Has Nothing to Do with Hackers

Africa's cybersecurity failures stem less from sophisticated hackers than from insecure system design, weak governance and limited skills, leaving institutions exposed and shifting the challenge from external threats to internal accountability and resilience.

Africa’s AI Governance Crisis Is Not a Regulatory Gap, It Is a Sovereignty Emergency

Africa's looming AI rules expose a deeper problem: foreign-controlled infrastructure, weak enforcement capacity and externally governed data flows are eroding digital sovereignty, leaving states unable to regulate, protect citizens or meet global obligations.

Trusted Notifier Network (TNN) Core Concept 1: Unfair Cost Transfer and Reversal of Commercial Best

A flawed abuse-response system shifts costs from perpetrators to intermediaries, overwhelming enforcement. The Trusted Notifier Network seeks to realign incentives, curb low-quality reporting, and restore efficiency by embedding trust, accountability, and cost redistribution.

The Growing Role of Threat Intelligence in Internet Infrastructure Security

Threat intelligence is shifting from a passive feed to a core operational layer, helping infrastructure defenders connect fragmented signals, identify recurring attack patterns, and prioritise responses in an increasingly modular and fast-moving cybercrime ecosystem.

How DNSXplore Strengthens Internet Trust Across the Global DNSSEC Landscape

A once-trusted internet protocol is showing its age. DNSXplore, a global DNSSEC archive, exposes weaknesses, improves diagnostics and nudges adoption, helping secure the cryptographic chain underpinning online trust.
