Among the projects that were mentioned in the report, there was the .ДЕТИ domain – an Internet space of trust, which is formed thanks to projects that have chosen primary or additional addresses for their websites in the Cyrillic domain .ДЕТИ.
All resources in .ДЕТИ participate in a two-stage monitoring system, which allows to quickly identify and to fix vulnerabilities, as well as negative content that appears on the websites in the children’s domain zone. Thus, the Internet resources in .ДЕТИ always remain safe and comfortable to use.
Among the websites in .ДЕТИ, which increase the digital literacy of novice users, Tatyana especially highlighted: Roskomnadzor educational project on personal data protection Персональныеданные.дети; multimedia resource Касперский.дети, which contains many tips on safe and ethical online behavior; Веб-Ландия.дети – directory of the best sites for children of any age; children’s search service Спутник.дети and so on. At the moment, the catalog of the best websites .ДЕТИ contains about 150 resources of different thematic focus.
