According to Andrey Vorobyov, Director of the Coordination Center for the RU/RF domains, Russia’s domain industry in 2026 is focused on enhancing security and building trust online.
Safe Runet Week provides a platform for bringing together professionals, businesses, and government representatives to discuss current threats and countermeasures. The campaign is being held for the 19th time.
