In FY13, budget resources required to support SSR activities are estimated at $9.1 million, a 14 percent increase over FY12’s forecast. The increase for SSR in FY13 is due to continued collaboration and engagement in the following activities: 

 

 Work with ICANN’s IT on improving internal infrastructure, network security improvements and mobile device practices 

 

 Implement recommendations of the Security, Stability and Resiliency Review Team

 Continued engagement and adoption activities for DNSSEC with TLD operators, registrars, ISPs and enterprises; key ceremonies and support to SSAC work party on key rollover
