ICANN, which is responsible for the distribution and management of IP addresses, domain names and the allocation of top-level domain names around the world, warned of the possible disruption of the Internet around the world after October 11.
"As ICANN prepares, for the first time ever, to change encryption keys that help protect the DNS, the organization has published a guide to help everyone know what can happen," the organization said on its official website.
She added that some Internet users may have difficulty opening some web pages at some point within 48 hours of replacing the key and the user will begin to see the failure of name resolution is usually "server failure" or SERVFAIL errors.
According to Sputnik, encryption keys appeared in 2010. They must be changed every five years, but the process was delayed in 2015 because of the unwillingness of service providers.
ICANN's mission is to ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet. In order to reach someone else over the Internet, you must type an address through your device - a name or a number. This address must be unique in order for computers to know where others are located. ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers across the globe.
