After four years of work delivering research to help make the internet more trustworthy, we are announcing the sunsetting of the DNS Research Federation. While this chapter is ending, we are incredibly proud of the work we have accomplished and hope our research has been valuable to the community.

Over the past few years, the DNS Research Federation has been at the forefront of exploring the complex and critical world of the Domain Name System (DNS). 

Our work, spanning from analyzing DNS abuse and the impact of blockchain domains to understanding the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders in the DNS value chain and navigating evolving policy and regulatory frameworks, was driven by a single goal: to raise awareness of the linkages between the domain name system and cybersecurity, policy and tech standards.

We're incredibly grateful for the engagement and support we've received from researchers, policymakers, and the wider internet community. Your insights and collaboration have been instrumental in our efforts.

Accessing Our Research

We want to ensure our research remains a public resource. In the coming weeks, our published research papers, dashboards, blogs and reports will be migrated to www.oxil.co.uk. We encourage you to continue using these resources for your own work and research.

Thank you again for being part of this journey. We hope our contributions will continue to benefit the DNS ecosystem for years to come.
