Brand Safety Alliance is heading to APTLD Vietnam

Representatives of ccTLD Registries across the Asia-Pacific region will travel to Vietnam this month for APTLD’s next Members Meeting.

Held in the beautiful city of Da Nang from 17-20 September, the meeting provides a forum to discuss policy matters affecting domain name organizations and promote knowledge sharing and collaboration.

The Brand Safety Alliance’s (BSA) Tony Kirsch and Leona Chen-Birkner will attend the meeting and look forward to connecting with the APAC domain name community.

ccTLDs play a significant role in protecting the interests of brand owners around the world, and this is reflective across the included extensions within GlobalBlock currently.

With ccTLDs such as Indonesia’s .id, Sri Lanka’s .lk, Myanmar’s .mm and Papua New Guinea’s .pg already included in the ever growing GlobalBlock service, these namespaces are already seeing the benefits of domain blocking for proactive abuse reduction and building trust and positive community sentiment.

The BSA team will meet with current GlobalBlock participants and welcome the chance to discuss GlobalBlock’s benefits with Registries who are yet to join.

On Tuesday 17 September at 3pm, Tony will also deliver a presentation on Domain Blocking: How it works and why it’s a unique opportunity for ccTLDs.

If you’re attending APTLD86 in Vietnam, please contact us today via hello@brandsafetyalliance.co to arrange a time to meet.

From the early days of the Brand Safety Alliance, response to our mission from registries, registrars and brands in the Asia Pacific region has been strong. Many registries have chosen to participate in GlobalBlock and are recognizing the benefits of stronger brand and IP defenses in improving registry health and protecting internet users by proactively stopping abuse before it occurs. In the coming months, our commitment to this community ramps up through several events in partnership with the Asia Pacific Top-Level Domain Association (APTLD). The BSA’s Leona Chen-Birkner will present a webinar to APTLD members, before giving a presentation at the upcoming APTLD90 meeting in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia in September.

A lot has changed across the registry landscape since my last trip to the Asia Pacific Top Level Domain (APTLD) conference over two years ago in Danang, Vietnam. From the increasing role that AI plays in our businesses through to the ever-expanding abuse conundrum, the threat landscape has shifted in ways that should concern every registry operator, regardless of size and region. I'm excited to reconnect with the APTLD community at two upcoming events. First, I'll be joining APTLD members for a webinar on 26 August, followed by a session at APTLD90 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia this September, where I'll be sharing how the Brand Safety Alliance and GlobalBlock are helping registries and brands tackle online abuse through collaborative global protection programs.
