ICANN News Alert -- Conficker Summary and Review
by Chris Disspain May 12, 2010

May 12, 2010

All, Doubtless you will have seen the below. This report is largely a summary and factual analysis of the collaborative response to Conficker. However, I suspect, it is also a justification for the DNS-CERT proposal (“The Way Forward” – page 15)….possibly the only reason this was drafted and published.

It provides an introduction and brief description of the worm and its evolution, but its primary focus is to piece together the post-discovery and -analysis events, describe the containment measures chronologically, and describe the collaborative effort to contain the spread of the worm. The author captures lessons learned during a containment period spanning nearly a year and describes recent activities that attempt to apply the lessons learned so that the security and DNS communities can be better prepared for future attacks that exploit the global DNS. _____ Sign up for ICANN's Monthly Magazine <http://www.icann.org/magazine/> This message was sent from ICANN News Alert to paul.szyndler(a)auda.org.au.

Invitation to IANA Business Excellence Webinar for ccNSO
by Gabriella Schittek May 10, 2010

May 10, 2010

Dear all, IANA is inviting you to participate in a webinar about their "IANA Business Excellence". See below for more information. Gabi To: ccTLD Community Subject: Invitation to IANA Business Excellence Webinar Hi, We would like to invite you to a webinar providing an informational update on the IANA Business Excellence work. In this webinar we will explain what has happened since the workshop we gave at the Seoul ICANN meeting in October 2009, what we are doing now and what we plan to achieve. This webinar is probably of most interest to people who regularly interact with ICANN's IANA Department but it is open to everyone and may also be of interest to people who regularly use IANA registries. Participants will be able to ask questions which can be answered during the webinar. The webinar is scheduled for: Date: 12 May 2010 Time: 18:00-19:00 GMT/UTC That time is 2pm in Washington DC, 7pm in Dublin, 9pm in Nairobi, 11.30pm in Delhi, 3am (13 May) in Tokyo and 4am (13 May) in Brisbane. Because we live on a globe and any time will be grossly inconvenient to some people, a recording of the webinar will be made available on the web site after the event. In order to participate in the webinar you will need to register, which can be done at the URL: http://icann.na3.acrobat.com/e42556263/event/registration.html Additional information about the webinar can be found on our webinars page at: http://www.icann.org/en/learning/webinars.htm This is also where the archive will be made available, once the webinar is completed. Kind regards, Leo Vegoda
