I
received the following email and offer of an update. I’m wondering if we
want to take advantage of this in Los Angeles or if we might like to try to get
this as part of our next conference call. Opinions?
-------------
Inserted mail starts here:
My
name is Laura Mather and I am co-chair of the Domain Name System sub-committee
of the Anti-Phishing Working Group. This sub-committee has been working
on several initiatives that might be relevant to the ISP constituency,
including:
-
Registrar
anti-phishing best practices
-
Proposal
for registry phish site suspension
- Data on domain
tasting by phishers
- Best practices: What
to do if your site has been hacked
Several
members of the sub-committee will be attending ICANN in LA. If your
constituency would like an update on any of the above initiatives, we would be
happy to make sure that someone can attend your meeting to give this
update.
The
Anti-Phishing Working Group understands that there are many complex issues
being addressed by ICANN. Our goal is to continue working with the
various ICANN bodies to ensure that as policies and procedures are developed,
they take into account the implications to the anti-phishing community as well
as the Internet community as a whole.
We
look forward to seeing you in LA.
-Laura
