Comply with NIS2

NIS2 is an EU directive adopted by the EU parliament in November 2022. The purpose is to protect critical infrastructure, such as for examples DNS and IP addresses , from cyber threats and to achieve a high level of security across the whole of EU. 

Building upon the NIS directive from 2016, NIS2 includes stricter security requirements, reporting obligations, and enforcement requirements for you as a domain registrar. One of these stricter requirements is that domain companies are required to verify domain buyers and companies who register internet domains.

Critical for NIS2 - reusability

How it works for registrants

 

NIS2 states that registrants shouldn't have to redo identity verification. Truid solves that.

1. The registrant receives a request to verify their identity.

2. They use an identity document and the Truid platform to verify their identity and create a reusable digital identity.

3. They share their verified identity data with explicit consent to the registrar.

The registrant can use their reusable Truid identity to perform buyer identity verification for all other registries where they have domains, in conjunction with NIS2.

The challenges of IDV for domain name registrars

Digital identity verification poses challenges for domain name registrars due to the need to balance regulatory compliance, user privacy, and cybersecurity concerns. This holds for new domain extensions as well as existing domain extensions.

Registrars must verify the identities of registrants accurately while minimizing friction in the registration process. Navigating the challenges of IDV for domain name registrars is crucial, especially in the context of evolving EU legislation.

Domain name registrars play a crucial role in shaping the digital landscape. Giving a registrant smooth access to their preferred domain name, as well as ensuring the authenticity of domain registrations is paramount in safeguarding against cyber threats and DNS abuse

Choosing a memorable and relevant web address can enhance brand identity and visibility on the internet.

Truid

The solution

Our solution is built for the domain ecosystem, and can utilize e-mails as the verification channel, as well as instant verification. The link that is emailed to the user can be created automatically and sent over API, or manually by a customer service representative in the Truid web portal and pasted in to a pre-defined email template sent from the TLD/resellers mail system.

1

The registrants asks to register their preferred domain name. A registry or registrar then initiates an identity verification process by sending an email with a Truid generated link to the registrant.

2

The registrant receives a branded email with instructions and a link from the registry or registrar.

3

The registrant identify themselves and share their identity data.

4

Verification, identity and contact data are shared to registry or registrar. The registrant has acquired their dream domain name and the registrar has decreased their fraud and abuse risk.

"After implementing Truid, we now see that those trying to bypass the system and register domains with false information give up immediately when they reach the digital verification step. This has resulted in less work for our abuse department.”
