Ukraine ranks seventh in world in terms of Internet traffic – PCH
KYIV. Dec 6 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Ukraine ranks seventh in the world in terms of Internet traffic.
"Ukraine is actively developing traffic exchange points. For four years now, the country has ranked seventh and is ahead of many other states that are much larger than Ukraine," Bill Woodcock, Executive Director of Packet Clearing House (PCH), said at the UADOM conference in Kyiv on Thursday, December 1.
He also noted that PCH has been cooperating with the UA domain registry by Hostmaster since 2004.
"During this time, best security practices have been introduced in the Ukrainian domain, and now Ukraine is among the 25 most developed countries in the world that use the most advanced security technologies," the PCH executive director emphasized.
Packet Clearing House is an international non-profit organization responsible for providing operational support and security for critical Internet infrastructure, including Internet data exchange points and the core of the Domain Name System.
The .UA domain was delegated by the international organization IANA (later renamed ICANN) to Dmytro Kokhmaniuk and Ihor Svyrydov in 1992 in the interests of the entire Ukrainian Internet community. For a long time, the administration and development of the domain on a voluntary basis was carried out by specialists who united the Ukrainian Network Coordination Group (UA NCG) and created a specialized enterprise Hostmaster LLC in 2001, which currently performs the functions of an administrator.
