Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers

Read a random definition: apostasy

A quick definition of Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers:

Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is a group that helps manage the names and numbers used on the internet. They make sure that every website has a unique name and number so that people can find it easily. They also help allocate the addresses that computers use to communicate with each other on the internet. ICANN was created in 1998 and is a nonprofit organization.

A more thorough explanation:

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is a non-profit organization that was created in 1998. Its main purpose is to manage the system of Internet domain names and allocate Internet Protocol (IP) address space.

For example, when you type in a website address like www.google.com, ICANN is responsible for making sure that the domain name is registered and that it points to the correct IP address where the website is hosted. Without ICANN, it would be difficult to navigate the internet and find the websites you are looking for.

ICANN also plays a role in ensuring that the internet remains open and accessible to everyone. It works with governments, businesses, and other organizations to develop policies and standards that promote a secure and stable internet.
