The Domain Name System Infrastructure Resilience (DIR) Task Force is a new (2008) community-based initiative designed to promote best practice in handling attacks on Internet Infrastructure and is part-funded by the European Commission, academic institutions and the private sector.

Our mission is to gather statistics and generate learned reports on European DNS activity, threats and operational issues.

The DIR task force is open to all TLD registry operators and also DNS specialists who are willing to contribute time, effort and information to enhance the security of the Internet.
