# About
Most U.S. government websites end in .gov or .mil, but some end in .com, .org, .net, or other top-level domains. This repo contains a list of government domains that do not end in .gov or .mil.
[OMB M-22-09: Federal Zero Trust Strategy (PDF, 29 pages, 913 KB)](https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/M-22-09.pdf) requires federal executive branch agencies to submit non-.gov or .mil domains for inclusion in this list.
