Video footage of stimulating talks and debates of 2018 Domain Pulse in Munich soon online featuring, among others, futurologist Matthias Horx, former Federal Data Protection Commissioner Peter Schaar and ZITiS President Wilfried Karl.

As newly approved Authorized New gTLD Data Escrow Agent DENIC offers, with immediate effect, both to ICANN-accredited registrars and registries an escrow service which fully complies with the European legal framework.

You find them in every village, every district and in the German metropolises anyway – domains with the German ending .de are registered virtually everywhere in Germany. Their precise distribution is mapped every year in the annual regional domain statistics published by DENIC.

DENIC extends its business to include back-up storage for the registration data of ICANN-accredited registrars. These benefit both from DENIC's impartiality and the conformity of its service with European data protection regulations.

For 30 years, precisely since 5 November 1986, Germany's country code TLD .de has been online. On 17 December, DENIC, the organisation behind .de, now makes the twin jubilee complete, celebrating its 20th anniversary.
