About Internet Systems Consortium

Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and supporting core Internet infrastructure technologies. Founded in 1994, ISC is primarily known for its open-source Internet networking software packages, including BIND 9, ISC DHCP, and Kea DHCP. BIND 9, one of the most widely used Domain Name System (DNS) software, is integral to the Internet's functionality, serving enterprises and service providers. Kea DHCP provides dynamic IP address management and is known for its flexible architecture and support for both IPv4 and IPv6. ISC also operates the F-Root, one of the 13 root nodes of the global DNS, enhancing Internet connectivity and stability. Committed to open-source principles, ISC offers professional support and consulting to organizations, with financial backing from customers who value open-source contributions. ISC's work is critical to maintaining a robust, free, and open Internet, ensuring widespread access and interoperability.
