===Trusted Community Representatives===
As the operator of the [[Internet Assigned Numbers Authority#Domain names|IANA domain name functions]], ICANN is responsible for the [[DNSSEC]] management of the root zone. While day-to-day operations are managed by ICANN and [[Verisign]], the trust is rooted in a group of Trusted Community Representatives. The members of this group must not be affiliated with ICANN, but are instead members of the broader DNS community, volunteering to become a Trusted Community Representative. The role of the representatives are primarily to take part in regular key ceremonies at a physical location, organized by ICANN, and to safeguard the key materials in between.<ref name="iana-tcr-criteria">{{Cite web |date=12 May 2017 |title=Criteria for Trusted Community Representatives |url=https://www.iana.org/help/tcr-criteria |access-date=17 July 2020 |publisher=IANA}}</ref>
