Implementation Notes
- Ensure complete TLS/SSL configuration in all environments
- DNSSEC should be actively used when supported
- AuthInfo must meet minimum requirements (e.g., 12 characters)
- Note different status codes or dispute policies for ccTLDs
- Check if third-level structures (co.uk etc.) need separate documentation
