7/14/25, 11:35 AM Ajman University Secures ICANN Grant To Develop Global Internet Security System - UrduPoint
The initiative promises to create research and training opportunities for AU

graduates, while providing current students and researchers access to valuable

datasets for research and development purposes — supporting their growth in
analytical and technical skills.

The project addresses a major global challenge related to the implementation of

DNSSEC, a protocol strongly advocated by global Internet bodies like ICANN and

IETF for securing the DNS ecosystem. In the adoption of DNSSEC protocol, one

of the main obstacles has been the lack of visibility into global adoption and
implementation gaps.

Through the newly developed system, Ajman University seeks to bridge that gap

by monitoring and analyzing DNSSEC adoption across Internet domain names

worldwide.

This project reflects Ajman University’s strong commitment to leveraging scientific

research in service of global challenges and underscores its active role in building

secure and sustainable digital infrastructure that benefits academic and technical

communities both locally and globally.
