The ccNSO DNS Abuse Standing Committee (DASC) is intended to maintain a dedicated forum for ccTLD Managers to discuss the important topic of DNS Abuse and to share information, insights, and practices. It is primarily aimed at ccTLD Managers who participate within the ICANN community but is not limited to ccNSO members. Participation is purely voluntary. In keeping with the nature of the ccNSO, the purpose of the Committee is not to formulate any policy or standards, recognising that policy development in this area is out of scope of the ccNSO policy remit. The overarching purpose is to raise understanding and awareness of the issues pertaining to DNS Abuse, promote open and constructive dialogue, and ultimately to assist ccTLD Managers in their efforts to mitigate the impact of DNS Abuse. In undertaking its activities, the Committee is not mandated nor shall it act as a representative of nor act on behalf of the ccNSO, ccNSO Membership, ccNSO Council or individual ccTLD Managers collectively or individually. Scope of activities The main areas of activities are: * Enhance sharing of information and practices for the benefit of ccTLDs * Showcase ccTLD efforts * Reinforce the message about the nature of ccTLDs and the (limited) role of the ccNSO when addressing other stakeholders in the DNS ecosystem * Share DNS Abuse related metrics The Committee is expected to create and maintain a repository of useful resources for ccTLD managers. Workload & working method The DASC will starts its work around ICANN74 in June 2022, and is expected to convene via recorded teleconferences every other week. Consult the Roadmap<https://ccnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/field-attached/roadmap-ccnso-dn…> for more details about the phased approach. Who can join? Members can be representatives from all ccTLD managers listed in the IANA database, whether members or non-members of the ccNSO. The Committee should represent ccTLDs globally with at least one member from each of the ICANN geographical regions. Compensation DASC members are not compensated. The ccNSO has a limited number of travel funding slots to ICANN public meetings with a face-to-face component, for those participants that actively participate in the work of the ccNSO and makes a special contribution to its projects and meetings. How to apply? If you are interested in joining the DASC, kindly send an e-mail to joke.braeken(a)icann.org<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org> , with the following materials: * your statement of interest, including a short biography * Kindly specify your affiliation with a ccTLD Manager, and disclose potential conflicts of interest. Closing date of this call for volunteers is Friday, 29 April 2022, 23:59 UTC The ccNSO Secretariat will send all DASC members a Public Data Consent Form. Via this form, you consent to ICANN processing data in order to add you as a member of the DASC and its mailing list(s). The form explains the information ICANN will process to administer your participation in the DASC and how the information will be used for this purpose. It also describes the rights you have regarding your information.

Additional notes from DNS Abuse Session at ICANN73
by Irina Danelia April 15, 2022

April 15, 2022

Dear all, At the last Council meeting I promised to share additional notes I made for myself during ICANN73 DNS Abuse Plenary: Evolving the DNS Abuse Conversation. You may see them below Should you are not interested in the subject please ignore this message Best regards, Irina ============ MACIEJ KORCZYNSKI Presentation Example 1: URL to malicious website (blacklisted by a Phish Tank). There is no meaningful content, WHOIS information shows that the domain name was registered just two days before the actual URL was blacklisted =>> strong evidence that the domain name is maliciously registered and abused to serve illegal and abusive content Mitigation should be both at the DNS and hosting level from the technical perspective Example 2: URL to malicious website (blacklisted by Anti-Phishing Working Group). A website with a legitimate content, and the content also corresponds to the domain name itself. WHOIS information shows that the domain name was registered back in 2014 =>> most probably the domain name itself is legitimate. Wp-includes in the malicious URL, indicate that the actual website has been hacked by exploiting vulnerable Word Press installation Mitigation should be at the hosting level by hosting provider or the owner or administrator of the website. To clean the malicious content and to patch vulnerable and Word Press installation. Legitimate domains are mainly abused at the website level (vulnerable software). Sometimes it happens at the DNS level. Example - domain shadowing where the attackers first will try to phish for credentials of registrars, registrants to get to their registration panel. After add subdomains that could be used in phishing attacks. ======= QUESTION: Do we need to distinguish between malicious or compromised? REG LEVI: Customers use commercial website creators that require regular updates. If updates are not performed, they are vulnerable to compromise. Reach out to the registrant to explain need for regular updates ALAN WOODS: when we take action against a domain, there is a lot of collateral damage. CHRIS LEWIS-EVANS: We should treat differently. With the compromise, we have two types of victims, the primary victim and then those that may be affected by sort of collateral harms. We need to be able to treat them both and provide both with sufficient help. LORI SCHULMAN: It's important to distinguish between malicious and compromised domains at least at the front end in terms of how quickly we can respond to a particular issue. But the actual victim is the end user. in the case of small businesses. Compromised web-site =>> reputation compromised. we should make the assumption that the small business wouldn't prefer to have their site down for a certain amount of time if it, in fact, is protecting their customers or their reputation QUESTION: What to do with maliciously registered domain? ROD RASMUSSEN: A registry/registrar has very few options with the same effect - to remove the domain itself from the global DNS. This can be done via: - delete domain (remove this registration) - suspend the domain - redirect (change the DNS and point it at that phishing landing page) - transfer to another entity Good idea to look for other domains that are lined up or being used by the same registrant QUESTION: Malware and phishing on a compromised website - what to do in this circumstance? What is the balance of harms that people are typically doing? would suspend the domain for a compromised website? ALAN WOODS: It's about disproportionality of harms. The registry should not be the point of taking down where at all possible, but where it's necessary, we have that option. REG LEVY: We tend to use suspension as an option of last resort after reaching out to the reseller and to the registrant directly. Or turn off mail, reset a nameserver if that's where compromise is happening. Sometimes registrant asks to put domain online to fix it. Sometimes we need to allow the domain to resolve in order for them to log into their website and fix the issue. LORI SCHULMAN: compromised domain names - completely different decision path (what, when and how to do). Big vs small businesses - they look differently. No onesize-fit-all on compromised domain names. Nuanced decision trees needed CHRIS LEWIS-EVANS: On malicious domain the Registry and the Registrar Stakeholder Groups have done good work to advice on evidentiary standards for abuse notification. This work hasn't been done for compromised domains What if this is a large multinational company that you're asking for us to suspend? QUESTION: Escalation paths between registrant, hosting company, registrar, registry - are those relationships clear? Are there standards for that process? REG LEVY: The answer may be different for other registrars. Our resellers typically are also hosting companies. If not we need to use a DiG tool to figure out who the hosting company is and to contact it. ALAN WOODS: Registry does not have connection with the hosting provider. How to improve reporting process to hosting providers? QUESTION: Where should this community go? CHRIS LEWIS-EVANS: We don't have a proper process for dealing with compromised domains. We need minimum expectations documented. Standards to all the registrars and registries so they understand what is required of them. Educational materials. Understanding the best practice REG LEVY: The registrar stakeholder group is currently working on a tool where you can put a domain name in, and it will spit out information about who the hosting company is and how to contact them. ROD RASMUSSEN: There is SAC115. SSAC Report on an Interoperable Approach to Addressing Abuse Handling in the DNS. LORI SCHULMAN: Is it time to think about a UDRP-type process for compromised domains?
