Tuesday morning at Nordic Domain Days 2026 opens with an update on one of the most consequential industry initiatives shaping how the internet handles abuse. Keith Drazek (Verisign) and Bertrand de la Chapelle (Internet & Jurisdiction Policy Network) take the stage together for an Internet Infrastructure Forum (IIF) Update.

The IIF is a multi-stakeholder forum where registries, registrars, hosting providers, content platforms, and other internet infrastructure operators exchange intelligence, coordinate against online abuse, and develop the operational frameworks the modern stack now needs. It brings together industry actors like Verisign and policy networks like Internet & Jurisdiction and eco, alongside members such as Google, AWS, Cloudflare, and iQ.

Bertrand de la Chapelle brings the cross-jurisdictional view. As Director and co-founder of the Internet & Jurisdiction Policy Network, he has been one of the principal voices behind establishing the IIF in the first place, arguing that solving online abuse and the legal interoperability problems behind it requires proportional, jointly-governed spaces beyond ICANN's DNS-only mandate.

This is a 30-minute Tuesday morning briefing for anyone whose work touches abuse, compliance, or cross-border policy. Expect a candid status report on what the IIF has actually done in the last twelve months, where the friction points are, and what the workstreams plan to ship next.
