All over the world, people rely on the Internet as a critical source of information and as a global marketplace. Registries are a critical component of the Internet, as they allow information to be stored in secure formats that are readily accessible across disparate networks,  and VeriSign operates global registries that are fundamental to the everyday operation of the Internet.

VeriSign operates the Domain Name System (DNS) servers that support the .com and .net top-level domains, and has been operating these servers for nine years with 100% availability. In this capacity, VeriSign has facilitated as many as 32 billion DNS queries in a single day.

Through Project Titan we're expanding our DNS infrastructure - in scale and location globally - and we are investing in new engineering, monitoring, and security systems and processes to be better prepared for the explosive surges in Internet transactions that would likely follow as activities converge on Internet Protocol (IP)-based networks.
