Research & Development in the Domain Name System (DNS) Industry (DNS-R&D)
Ensure active research & development in the DNS industry - Mandate Aim
The Internet as the primary platform on which online activities are enabled, relies on the Domain Name System (DNS) for the identification of resources online. The Domain Name System is the hierarchical and decentralized naming system used to identify computers reachable through the Internet or other Internet Protocol networks. Ranging from people, devices, data & processes, businesses etc., the DNS application is widely growing and there is a need to participate in its development, adoption and utilization of the full potential of the DNS to advance the development of the Nigerian technology sector.
“The global economy is undergoing a digital transformation.”
Through multilateral and institutional partnerships, NKF will promote research and capacity development in technology to facilitate DNS research and development, covering theoretical, technical, policy process, businesses and knowledge sharing for improved re-integration, innovation and better impact of the DNS industry within the national, regional and global economy.
