Dear Maarten,

On behalf of the second Security, Stability, and Resiliency (SSR2) Review Team<https://community.icann.org/x/AE6AAw> and pursuant to the ICANN Bylaws Section 4.6(c<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article4.6>), attached is the SSR2 Review Team Final Report for submission to the ICANN Board of Directors. The report contains 63 full consensus recommendations in the following areas:

  *   SSR1 implementation and intended effects;
  *   Key stability issues within ICANN;
  *   Contracts, compliance, and transparency around Domain Name System (DNS) abuse; and
  *   Additional SSR-related concerns regarding the global DNS.

To support more efficient evaluations by future SSR review teams, the SSR2 Review Team attempted to phrase its own recommendations according to the SMART criteria: specific, measurable, assignable, relevant, and trackable. In many cases, the detail required to make each recommendation fully SMART, including assigning appropriate timelines, will require thought and action from the implementation team and should be included in the final implementation plan. The review team also offered several suggestions for consideration regarding how future reviews might be handled, recognizing that these fall outside the direct mandate of the SSR review itself. The SSR2 Review Team has aligned all SSR2 recommendations with the 2021-2025 ICANN Strategic Plan and its goals and objectives.

The following SSR2 Review Team members have offered to act as implementation shepherds and stand ready to answer questions and provide clarifications to the Board as necessary: Kerry-Ann Barrett, KC Claffy, Russ Housley, Laurin Weissinger.

The SSR2 Review Team would like to thank the entire ICANN Community and the ICANN Board for thoughtful engagement and feedback throughout the process.

Sincerely,

Russ Housley,
Chair, SSR2 Review Team
