In February, ARIN conducted Community Consultation 2023.2 in response to open suggestion ACSP 2022.10 regarding providing announcements and policy documents, such as the Policy Development Process (PDP) and Number Resource Policy Manual, in Spanish and French to encourage greater participation and discussion from non-native English-speaking members of our community. The consultation was held for 10 business days and received a total of eight comments. The consultation highlighted the availability of online document translation services and raised doubts about the value of producing official versions at ARIN due to their considerable cost and uncertain impact on improving access to ARIN’s services.
On 1 November 2022, ARIN announced that we will require two-factor authentication (2FA) on all ARIN Online accounts beginning 1 February 2023. ARIN currently has three options for customers to set up 2FA on their ARIN Online accounts. Following the announcement of the planned enforcement date of 1 February 2023, we received several suggestions for further expansion of our authentication offerings, including: Allowing email as an authentication method Enabling SMS support for customers who reside outside of the ARIN service region Allowing registration of multiple hardware security keys In January 2023, ARIN conducted Community Consultation 2023.
ARIN recovers the cost of its registry operations through an annual Registration Services Plan (RSP) fee charged to registry customers based on the total size of the number resources held. Organizations that bring legacy resources under a Registration Services Agreement (RSA/LRSA) have benefitted from an annual “legacy fee cap” (presently $175 for 2023 and increasing each year by $25), which applies regardless of the number of IPv4 legacy resources held.

ARIN is seeking feedback from the community on open suggestion ACSP 2022.10 to provide announcements and policy documents, such as the Policy Development Process (PDP) and Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM), in Spanish and French. The aim of the suggestion is to encourage greater participation and discussion from non-native English speaking members of our community. ARIN has investigated various options for implementing the suggestion to provide content in Spanish and French, including using translation service products and the necessary website setup and maintenance.
ARIN is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed the Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type 1 audit of its Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) as of December 2022. SOC 2 is a gold standard in security compliance developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). ARIN worked with an independent auditing firm to complete the SOC 2 Type 1 audit, which confirms that ARIN’s information security policies and procedures include controls designed and implemented to meet the SOC 2 standards against which our community has requested we certify.
