As the Regional Internet Registry for Europe, the Middle East and parts of Central Asia, the RIPE NCC welcomes the opportunity to give feedback on the European Commission's proposed Cyber Resilience Act.

As an organisation tasked with operating one of the world’s 13 global DNS root servers (K-root), the RIPE NCC appreciates the opportunity to share its views on the proposed text of the European Commission’s NIS 2 Directive and to express some concerns about how we understand the proposed legislation would affect global domain name system (DNS) operations.
