Secure Domain Foundation (SDF) - Formed Yesterday.

 It is a non-profit organization whose goal is to facilitate information sharing among Internet domain registrars and registries

Another small but important additional layer of Security. Hopefully, this should help reducing a few malicious players.


According to the article:- 

The SDF will analyze and report the email and IP addresses of bad actors, making it easier for Internet domain registrars and registries to uniformly block them, Davis says. The organization also has developed methods for recognizing potentially malicious domains and measuring the reputation of applicants to help registrars screen their applicants.

"The SDF provides an entirely free service that not only validates the contact registration data provided, but also lets the registrar and registry know if we have seen that data used previously in relation to cyber crime," Ritchie says.
