Registry Data Escrow Specification
Overview
RFC 8909, “Registry Data Escrow Specification”, is a Proposed Standard document published in November 2020 by G. Lozano. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies the format and contents of data escrow deposits targeted primarily for domain name registries. The specification is designed to be independent of the underlying objects that are being escrowed, and therefore it could also be used for purposes other than domain name registries.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
