Since the Digital Learning Hub (DLH) has been launched in 2022, the Restena Foundation has been regularly engaged with this continuing professional training structure of the Ministry of National Education, Children and Youth (MENJE). The year 2024 is no exception to the rule.

After February and July 2024, the last three months of the year will see the completion of six training sessions, all in the ‘Cyber Security’ training group. Of these, ¾ will focus on new knowledge transfers around three key themes.

• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) - MFA allows a secured connection by providing two or more distinct proofs of identity.

➔ Restena has implemented strong, phishing-resistant MFA for its own staff resources, and is working with the international eduroam community to move eduroam accounts towards MFA.

• The Domain Name System (DNS) - DNS is one of the fundamental elements of the Internet that provides a distributed naming system and its complexity has to be considered for the domain name's optimum protection.

➔ Restena manages the authoritative servers for the .lu top-level domain, in the context of its .lu registry activity.

• The DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) protocol - DNSSEC is essential to guarantee optimal security for all .lu domain names.

➔ A set of "authoritative" servers offered by Restena to the research and education community in Luxembourg and to the users of its online .lu domain name platform is DNSSEC-signed

The Restena's training courses, like all the others in the catalogue, lead to the issue of a certificate of participation by the Ministry of National Education, Children and Youth.
