DotGov Domain Services

Bona fide government services should be easy to identify on the internet, so GSA’s Office of Information Integrity and Access oversees the .gov top-level domain (TLD).

We ensure that .gov domains are easy to obtain and resolve globally, and work to make the .gov zone a trusted, safe space. We support, develop, and implement strategic and operational actions to strengthen .gov. We also monitor and report on policy compliance and best practices for Federal websites and digital services.
