Internet Hall of Fame Welcomes Ram Mohan

When Donuts and Afilias came together to form Identity Digital, it marked the uniting of two pioneering companies with a shared commitment to strengthening and expanding the internet. Among the visionary leaders who carried that mission forward is our Chief Strategy Officer, Ram Mohan, whose decades of work advancing DNS security, stability, and multilingual access have now earned him one of our industry’s highest honors: induction into the Internet Hall of Fame.

Ram has been a major figure in shaping internet policy and standards, having advanced DNS security and stability to make the internet a safer and more inclusive space for users worldwide. Through his leadership in various internet standards groups, he built the team that developed the global language representation standard for top-level domains, a cornerstone of the modern multilingual internet. His work in this area is recognized as foundational, and he is widely regarded as a major figure in making the internet more inclusive and accessible across languages and cultures.

Today, in recognition of all of his outstanding work, we are excited to share that Ram has been officially inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame.
