Reviewing RIPE Policies and security practices supports coherent regulation of IP resource management. The exchange fosters public–private dialogue, ensuring that government strategies align with technical realities. Insights gained may inform Dutch approaches to cyber‑security and critical infrastructure protection. Furthermore, the visit underscores the value of multistakeholder cooperation in sustaining a stable and secure Internet ecosystem RIPE Network Coordination Center.
