RE: [bc-gnso] Meet the seven people who hold the keys to worldwide internet security

Chris,
 
Thanks for sending this; instructive and entertaining.  I must say, though, the 
most compelling bit was this:
 
"But once everyone has moved to the new, more secure system (this is expected 
in the next three to five years), the effects of losing or damaging the key 
would be far graver."
 
As we move more of our lives online and to the cloud, the same can be said of 
our personal data.  A good reminder to enact good data practices.
 
Cheers,
 
Berard

  BC,
  
 Meet the seven people who hold the keys to worldwide internet security
 It sounds like the stuff of science fiction: seven keys, held by individuals 
from all over the world, that together control security at the core of the web. 
The reality is rather closer to The Office than The Matrix

 Interesting and positive ICANN / DNSSEC article on today's UK Gardian 
newspaper, to end the ICANN week on happy PR note.
  
 Watch the Video as well.
