Brand Safety Alliance returns for APTLD 87 to continue engagement with Asia Pacific ccTLD

The Brand Safety Alliance team is once again pleased to be attending APTLD’s next members meeting, to be held in Hong Kong this February. 

These events are a unique and valuable opportunity to connect with ccTLD Registries and share in the latest knowledge, news and best practice.  

The Brand Safety Alliance will travel to Hong Kong for the forum and look forward to meeting with existing GlobalBlock partners and other ccTLD Registries that may be interested to learn how domain blocking has provided significant financial and operational benefits for registries since launching in March last year. 

Guam’s .gu is the latest ccTLD to join the GlobalBlock service, joining dozens of other geographic identifier namespaces that are recognizing the value of proactively preventing trademark abuse and boosting the integrity of their namespaces. 

The Brand Safety Alliance is proud to be the Gold Sponsor for APTLD87 and will also present a fireside chat at 12pm on Tuesday 11 February. In this session, Tony Kirsch will interview leaders from the ccTLD community who have joined GlobalBlock, to discuss how it has benefited their Registries and the broader communities they serve. 

If you’re attending the meeting and would like to meet with our team, please contact us today via email to hello@brandsafetyalliance.co

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.
