DNS working group

The DNS (Domain Name System) working group is a team within the internet community that develops and maintains standards for how domain names (like www.example.com) are translated into numerical IP addresses. This process ensures that when you type a website address, your device can find the correct server on the internet. The group collaborates on protocols, security, and efficiency improvements to ensure DNS remains reliable, scalable, and secure as internet usage grows. They work through discussions, proposals, and standards that guide how DNS systems operate worldwide.
