The annual auDA Compliance Plan sets out our broad compliance priorities for the year. It allows industry and the public to see where we are focussing our attention and the types of activities we will be undertaking to support compliance with the .au Licensing Rules and confidence in .au.

Scam activity costs Australians hundreds of millions of dollars each year, and has significant personal and emotional repercussions for victims. That is why this year, auDA has again partnered with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s (ACCC) Scamwatch for Scams Awareness Week.

In our highly connected, digital world, consumers and businesses alike are turning to the Internet of Things (IoT) to help improve the quality of our lives, access productivity benefits and make services more accessible. To find out more about IoT, in September 2022, auDA hosted a webinar with Frank Zeichner, CEO and founder of the IoT Alliance Australia.

We recently had the privilege of interviewing Byron Holland, President and CEO of the Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA), auDA’s Canadian counterpart. Byron shared his thoughts on CIRA’s latest innovations, the importance of multi-stakeholder internet governance model and building a trusted internet.
