Thank you. Please add me to the other group that is working on the authentication mechanisms. Thanks, Steve Crocker On Tue, Apr 8, 2025 at 4:59 PM Isabelle Colas-Adeshina via IRT.RegDataPolicy <irt.regdatapolicy@icann.org> wrote:
Dear IRT members,
I hope this message finds you well. As you may know by now, the GAC, Board, and GNSO Council have held 2 trilateral calls to discuss possible next steps for the timeline for urgent requests. As a reminder, the Registration Data Policy <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/registration-data-policy-2024-02-21-en#disclosure-requests>does not include language related to Recommendation 18, which *anticipated a separate timeline for *responses to* urgent requests for lawful disclosure of non-public registration data. * Specifically, stating
*"separate timeline of [less than X business days]** will be considered for the response to 'Urgent' Reasonable Disclosure Requests, those Requests for which evidence is supplied to show an immediate need for disclosure [time frame to be finalized and criteria set for Urgent requests during implementation]."*.
In the latest trilateral call, the GAC, Board, and GNSO Council agreed that further discussions regarding the timeline associated with these requests should take place within the Registration Data Policy IRT.
It has been some time since this group has met. We are currently drafting materials that will explore several options to facilitate a structured discussion over a series of 3 to 4 IRT sessions. As a reminder, these discussions will focus solely on identifying a timeline for responding to urgent requests for lawful disclosure, with the assumption that the identity of a requestor has met authentication requirements. It is important to note that discussions about the authentication mechanism itself will not take place during these sessions. These discussions are happening concurrently within another group, and IRT members are welcome to join that parallel work if they are interested and believe they can contribute. Once the authentication mechanism is ready, we will notify the IRT regarding the next steps for enforcing the urgent requests timeline.
We will share these materials with the IRT for input and feedback and as well as circulate a doodle poll, followed by meeting invitations to discuss the feedback received. Please keep an eye out for further details.
Thank you for your continued dedication to this work, and we look forward to speaking with you all soon.
Kind regards,
