Protect your network
Resource continuity, contractual exposure and collective representation.
Downstream address use
NRS’s challenge to restrictions affecting the operators who provide connectivity and hosting.
South African operator representation
Operator consent, regulatory pluralism and an accountable governance voice.
Voting integrity & member testimony
NRS’s continuing concerns about the 2025 AFRINIC election process and the treatment of members.
Turn concern into a mandate
Shared risks need a voice where decisions are made. NRS Shield connects resource risk, member support and collective representation. A power of attorney, or POA, sets out which acts an individual member authorizes NRS to perform on their behalf.
Membership does not automatically authorize NRS to vote or act for you. Before signing, review the institution concerned, the permitted acts, the limits of authority, the duration and how to revoke it. Each election or policy process remains subject to its own rules; a mandate does not guarantee an outcome.
Read about POA and representation, explore NRS Shield, or contact NRS to discuss your situation.
