The 0-day market blurb from 10 Jan looks odd. Here's hoping for time to look into it. DanConnolly (talk) 18:14, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

The "0-day market" charge is an incorrect and inflammatory comment. I work at ISC, so I may be considered non-impartial, but I am also very familiar with the subject. ISC's Advance Security Notification service is a support service provided only to legitimate operators under an annual contract with an NDA and formal agreement. Although of course in some cases it is possible to discover an exploit given the patch, we give our support subscribers a patch, not an exploit. In contrast to the anonymous claim, ISC's security vulnerability policy was developed to help protect the Internet infrastructure and has been publicly disclosed for years. & Vickyrisk (talk) 13:01, 9 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Yes, the formulation of the paragraph doesn't seem impartial. Neználek (talk) 08:15, 8 September 2017 (UTC)


 * Full disclosure: I have worked for CZ.NIC and I am now working for ISC. I have removed the formulation, because it is simply not true and it is a targeted attack at ISC. Many of the open-source software vendors provide early security notifications for contractual customers, such as:


 * CZ.NIC Knot DNS (https://www.knot-dns.cz/support/) and BIRD (http://bird.network.cz/?support)
 * NLNetLab's NSD (https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/projects/nsd/support.html)
 * NGINX via NGINX Plus Programme (https://www.nginx.com/support/)

ISC license article
The orphan article ISC license should be deleted or expanded or merged in here. Gronky 12:03, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I expanded it a bit, and added a link to it from the BSD licenses article. I don't agree with deleting the ISC license article or merging it into this one, as they seem pretty distinct to me. Neilc 19:30, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

ISC's role on the internet
The article is missing what the ISC currently involves itself in. The ISC currently provides commercial dns resolutions to those that can afford to pay for it.

The ISC also employs or has members in a decision making capacity for which are sympathetic to corporate interest making them appear to have a bias and to be in a position of great power considering they maintain a root server and own bind.

I wanted to add a few things to the article since it has less information then most web hosting companies do.Woods01 (talk) 08:07, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
