All DNS-related subjects and discussion topics are welcome although we're particularly keen to hear more about operational and security related experiences, best practices and practical advice; both for newcomers to the DNS arena and those who have been around for longer who want to learn more about new features and opportunities to improve resilience, security and privacy. (These topics we think will complement the usual high-quality data-based research submissions we always hope to receive!)

If you have something interesting to share with the community that lies outside of the focus above, please don't be put off - if it's good, we'll be happy to include it.

If you'd like to offer a talk, but are not quite sure what to pick, here's a non-exhaustive list of ideas:

  1. Operations & Deployment
  2. Performance, Resilience & Scaling
  3. Security, Privacy & Policy
    1. DoS attacks, DNS abuse, DNSSEC signing and validation.
    2. Privacy considerations, for example: encrypted transport, qname minimization, data anonymization.
    3. Relevant global and regional policies, legislation, and compliance.
  4. Research & Innovation
    1. Data-driven testing, measurement, and analysis.
    2. New protocols, protocol extensions, and next-generation namespace management.
  5. Lessons & Learnings
    1. Outage experiences, recovery stories, and cautionary tales
