thorough evaluation carried out

In 2012, the Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authority carried out an audit of the security and stability of the .no services. Overall, the NPT was very satisfied after the evaluation.

The audit focused especially on the robustness and capacity of the .no name service. In addition, the NPT requested information about the registration system. Norid's organizational robustness and financial solidity were also evaluated.

Overall, the NPT was very satisfied with the results of the audit. However, they do emphazise the importance of keeping up the preventive security work, and stress that this is a continuous process which will always require time and resources.

– We have put great effort into being among the best within our line of business with regard to robustness and security, and we are pleased to see that the the efforts have given results, says Hilde Thunem, Managing Director of Norid.
