Bonjour à toutes et à tous, PVI, svp. -Olévié- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Robert Guerra <rguerra(a)privaterra.org> Date: 2015-11-09 18:43 GMT+00:00 Subject: [Internet Policy] IGF 2015 / INVITATION - Workshop #13: Keeping your credentials secure online: A roundtable To: internetpolicy(a)elists.isoc.org I would like to to invite members of this list to the following roundtable that is being organized by ICANN’s Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) tomorrow at the IGF in Joao Pessoa Workshop #13: Keeping your credentials secure online: A roundtable Date/Time: Tuesday Nov 10 - 9:00 - 10:30 (J Pessoa is 2hrs ahead of EST) Location: Workshop Room 4 Following the live stream: - Live Webcast for Workshop Room 4 http://webcast.igf2015.br/index.php/workshop-room-4/ Webcasts are also available at http://youtube.com/igf The remote participation @ https://goo.gl/9sqJKK Description: Hackers realize the power of stealing credentials to crack open systems and gain access to critical information. And, because many organizations do an inadequate job of protecting their systems—despite patching, hardening, and firewalls—stealing credentials is an easy hacker target. Many compromises tie directly into issues relating to credential management. A cornerstone of all security strategies is an organization’s ability to control access to data and systems. Virtually all access controls rely on the use of credentials to validate the identities and permissions of users, applications, and devices. The roundtable will invite experts who have insights into the way in which the problems of credential management, which have so often proven intractable in practice despite reams of good advice from security professionals, have been addressed in real world environments and scenarios. These insights will come from civil society; the academic community; the financial sector; the technology sector; companies from the DNS and domain name management industry; operating system, browser, and games and apps developers; and social media companies. The roundtable will focus on the presentation of practical problems faced day to day, well publicized incidents, impacts on reputation and privacy, direct actions efforts taken, and measures to implement practical solutions that incorporate best practices for credential management. practical problems that exist to implement and improve a security and emerging best practices. Session format: The workshop will be organized as a facilitated dialogue. Led by the moderator, subject experts will debate and discuss the key questions and issues. Subject experts will give opening comments, after which the moderator will turn to those attending the session and invited experts in the audience to engage in facilitated dialogue. SSAC Advisory #074 on Registrant Protection: Best Practices for Preserving Security and Stability in the Credential Management Lifecycle was published last week as a background document for discussion during the session.

GNSO PDP T&T has been approved by the ICANN board
by Rudi Vansnick Nov. 8, 2015

Nov. 8, 2015

Dear NPOC members, During the period 2014-2015 all over about 16 months I have been co-chair of the GNSO PDP working group on Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information. The final report with 7 recommendations was approved and unanimous voted by the GNSO Council during the Buenos Aires meeting. So we will enter into the last phase of this PDP in a few weeks with the implementation of the proposed recommendations. I welcome any NPOC member during the process of putting together the WG team. GNSO Council Recommendations Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information Whereas, on 13 June 2013, the GNSO Council launched a Policy Development Process (PDP) on the Translation and Transliteration, addressing two charter questions, set forth at http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/gtlds/transliteration-contact-charter-20nov… [PDF, 185 KB]. Whereas, the PDP followed the prescribed PDP steps as stated in the Bylaws, resulting in a Final Report delivered on 12 June 2015. Whereas, the Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information Working Group (WG) reached consensus on its first recommendation and full consensus on its remaining six recommendations.1 Whereas, the GNSO Council reviewed, and discussed the recommendations of the Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information WG, and adopted the Recommendations on 24 June 2015 by a unanimous vote (see: http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20150624-3) Whereas, the GNSO Council vote met and exceeded the required voting threshold (i.e. supermajority) to impose new obligations on ICANN contracted parties; and Whereas, after the GNSO Council vote, a public comment period was held on the approved recommendations, and the comments have been summarized and considered (https://www.icann.org/public-comments/transliteration-contact-recommendatio…) Resolved (2015.09.28.02), the Board adopts the GNSO Council Policy Recommendations concerning the translation and transliteration of contact information as presented in the Final Report. Resolved (2015.09.28.03), the CEO, or his authorized designee(s), is directed to develop and complete an implementation plan for these Recommendations and continue communication and cooperation with the GNSO Implementation Review Team and community on the implementation work. Rationale for Resolutions 2015.09.28.02 – 2015.09.28.03 Why the Board is addressing the issue now? The continued internationalization of the domain name systems means that an ever-larger share of Internet users do not use (or are not even familiar) with US ASCII, the technical term for the Latin-based script used in English and many other western European languages. Accuracy and consistency of contact information data are crucial to make it a useful source to those seeking information regarding domain name registrants. This PDP WG has considered the important issue of whether translated and/or transliterated data or data submitted in the script best known to the registrant is more likely to deliver these requirements, bearing also in mind the amount of requests for such data and the costs associated with blanket translation or transliteration. The Translation and Transliteration PDP Final Report received consensus support on its first recommendation and full consensus on the remaining six others. It also received unanimous support from the GNSO Council. Following the closing of the public comment period, the next step as outlined in Annex A of the ICANN Bylaws is consideration by the ICANN Board of the recommendations. What is the proposal being considered? The following policy recommendations are being adopted: Recommendation #1 The Working Group recommends that it is not desirable to make transformation of contact information mandatory. Any parties requiring transformation are free to do so on an ad hoc basis outside Whois or any replacement system, such as the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP). If not undertaken voluntarily by registrar/registry (see Recommendation #5), the burden of transformation lies with the requesting party. Recommendation #2 Whilst noting that a Whois replacement system should be capable of receiving input in the form of non-ASCII script contact information, the Working Group recommends its data fields be stored and displayed in a way that allows for easy identification of what the different data entries represent and what language(s)/script(s) have been used by the registered name holder. Recommendation #3 The Working Group recommends that the language(s) and script(s) supported for registrants to submit their contact information data may be chosen in accordance with gTLD- provider business models. Recommendation #4 The Working Group recommends that, regardless of the language(s)/script(s) used, it is assured that the data fields are consistent to standards in the Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA), relevant Consensus Policy, Additional Whois Information Policy (AWIP) and any other applicable polices. Entered contact information data are validated, in accordance with the aforementioned Policies and Agreements and the language/script used must be easily identifiable. Recommendation #5 The Working Group recommends that if the transformation of contact information is performed, and if the Whois replacement system is capable of displaying more than one data set per registered name holder entry, these data should be presented as additional fields (in addition to the authoritative local script fields provided by the registrant) and that these fields be marked as transformed and their source(s) indicated. Recommendation #6 The Working Group recommends that any Whois replacement system, for example RDAP, remains flexible so that contact information in new scripts/languages can be added and expand its linguistic/script capacity for receiving, storing and displaying contact information data. Recommendation #7 The Working Group recommends that these recommendations are coordinated with other Whois modifications where necessary and are implemented and/or applied as soon as a Whois replacement system that can receive, store and display non-ASCII characters, becomes operational. Finding in relation to second Charter question Based on recommendations #1-#7, the question of who should decide who should bear the burden of translating or transliterating contact information to a single common script is moot. Recommendation 1 was accompanied by a Minority Statement, reading as follows: Working Group member Petter Rindforth, in line with the position taken by his Constituency, the Intellectual Property Constituency (ICP),2 recommends mandatory translation and/or transliteration (transformation) of contact information in all generic top-level domains (gTLDs). Although he agrees that there are situations where the contact information in the local language of the registrant is the primary version, such as to identify the registrant in preparation for a local legal action, there are a number of situations where a global WHOIS search, providing access to data in as uniform a fashion as possible, is necessary for the data registration service to achieve its goals of providing transparency and accountability in the DNS. See also 5.1.1 [of the Final Report] explaining the Working Group's arguments supporting mandatory transformation of contact information in all generic top-level domains. Which stakeholders or others were consulted? Regular consultation with stakeholders took place during the lifetime of this PDP, specifically during three ICANN meetings (ICANN 49, 50 and 51), as well as public comment periods for the Preliminary Issues Report, the Initial Report and prior to Board consideration. What concerns or issues were raised by the community? The main concern that was raised by the Community was that a multi-script / multi-language database will lead to less transparency because scripts other than Latin might be less comprehensible for a majority of internet users. It would also reduce the search-ability of data. It was also feared that fraudulent registrants could hide their identity behind different scripts/languages. What significant materials did the Board review? The Board reviewed the Final Report, the GNSO Council Recommendations Report to the Board, as well as the summary of public comments and Staff's response to those comments. What factors did the Board find to be significant? The recommendations were developed following the GNSO Policy Development Process as outlined in Annex A of the ICANN Bylaws and have received the unanimous support from the GNSO Council. As outlined in the ICANN Bylaws, the Council's supermajority support for the motion (the Council voted unanimously in favor) obligates the Board to adopt the recommendation unless by a vote of more than two-thirds, the Board determines that the policy is not in the best interests of the ICANN community or ICANN. In addition, continuing the internationalization of the domain name system is an important area of work for ICANN. The recommendations have the potential to improve user-friendliness and accuracy of contact information data throughout a truly globalized DNS. Are there positive or negative community impacts? Some of the positive impacts identified in the Final Report include (but are not limited to): • Registrants not familiar with US-ASCII will be able to register domain names using the script they are most familiar with; • Registrars are not forced to translate or transliterate data but they have to validate data regardless of which script they support – the decision on which ones those are will be regulated by demand and supply; • Registration costs will not increase because requiring registrars to translate or transliterate all contact information data into one script3 will inevitably lead to costs that could be passed on to registrants; • Allowing registrants to use the language/script they are most familiar with when registering domains will have a positive impact on data accuracy. Some of the negative impacts identified in the Final Report are that: • Those seeking to search contact information data and operating in US-ASCII might have to translate or transliterate data to be able to contact registrants (though that is true for those seeking information but not familiar with US-ASCII even if translation or transliteration were mandatory). Are there fiscal impacts or ramifications on ICANN (strategic plan, operating plan, budget); the community; and/or the public? There are no fiscal impacts on ICANN. Those members of the community and wider public might have to pay for professional translation or transliteration of contact information. However, these costs stand in stark contrast to the potential costs that would occur if under a blanket requirement every contact that is provided in a script other than US-ASCII would have to be translated or transliterated. Are there any security, stability or resiliency issues relating to the DNS? The current WHOIS protocol is not designed for scripts other than US-ASCII. However, the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) is currently being rolled out as the WHOIS replacement and it [the RDAP] is fully compatible with different scripts. Once the RDAP is implemented – or any another replacement that is capable of dealing with scripts other than US-ASCII – there will be no security, stability, or resiliency issues related to the DNS if the Board approves the proposed recommendations.

An Update on IANA Stewardship Discussions
by Rudi Vansnick Nov. 3, 2015

Nov. 3, 2015

The message below is sent to you for your information. If you have any questions, please contact us. https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis… <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> Volume 11: An Update on IANA Stewardship Discussions <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/volume-11-an-update-on-iana-stewardship-dis…> Following ICANN54, the IANA Stewardship Transition is now a step closer The ICG and CCWG-Accountability met in Dublin during ICANN54 <https://meetings.icann.org/en/dublin54> to continue work on their proposals in wake of the feedback received during the two public comment periods that ended in September. The ICG was successful in completing its Consolidated IANA Stewardship Proposal and is now awaiting the finalization of the CCWG-Accountability’s Work Stream 1 Recommendations. When CCWG-Accountability finalizes its Work Stream 1 recommendations, and the CWG-Stewardship confirms that the recommendations meet its requirements, the ICG can consider its proposal complete and begin the process of submitting it to the NTIA. Consolidated IANA Stewardship Proposal Taking into account an analysis of the public comments <https://www.dropbox.com/s/j07zo4malyc2sx6/Public%20Comment%20Summary%20-%20…> received during the public comment period <https://www.ianacg.org/calls-for-input/combined-proposal-public-comment-per…> that ended on 8 September 2015, and after a number of working sessions <https://meetings.icann.org/en/dublin54/schedule-table?combine=ICG> during ICANN54 <https://meetings.icann.org/en/dublin54> in Dublin, the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG <http://www.ianacg.org/>) has announced <https://www.ianacg.org/icg-completes-its-work-and-awaits-conclusion-of-ccwg…> that it has finalized its proposal <http://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/documents/IANA-transition-proposal-v9.pdf>. However, before the ICG sends the proposal to the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA <http://www.ntia.doc.gov/>) via the ICANN Board, it will first confirm with the Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions (CWG-Stewardship <https://community.icann.org/display/gnsocwgdtstwrdshp/CWG+to+Develop+an+IAN…>) that its accountability requirements have been met by Work Stream 1 recommendations currently being finalized by the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability (CCWG-Accountability <https://community.icann.org/display/acctcrosscomm/CCWG+on+Enhancing+ICANN+A…>).The ICG has decided to keep its mailing lists active until 30 September 2016 to enable the community to continue to contact them, if needed. It is also seeking feedback from the three IANA operational communities (names, numbers and protocol parameters) to see if they would like ICG to play a role during the implementation of the IANA Stewardship Transition. The ICG will not hold any more face-to-face meetings and will only hold conference calls on an as-needed basis. There are still some implementation details to be finalized for the transition, including the issue of the IANA trademark and intellectual property rights (IPR). The CWG-Stewardship will work with the two other operational communities to find a solution to the IPR issue that meets the needs of all three communities. CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 1 Recommendations Following the 12 September end of the public comment period <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-2015-08-03-en> for the 2nd Draft Proposal on Work Stream 1 Recommendations <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ccwg-draft-2-proposal-work-stre…>, the CCWG-Accountability held a face-to-face meeting <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-2015-08-03-en>, 25-26 September, in Los Angeles, and a number of working sessions <https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56134263> in Dublin during ICANN54. As a result of its work to incorporate the feedback from the community, including feedback from the ICANN Board, the CCWG-Accountability made a number of adjustments and refinements to its draft recommendations. As a result of the adjustments, the CCWG-Accountability has decided to send the revised recommendations for a third public comment period. The third comment period will have a two-stage approach so the community can begin reviewing the materials as soon as possible. This is to enable the report on Work Stream 1 recommendations to be finalized and sent to the ICANN Board by mid January 2016, ensuring there are minimal effects on the timeline of the IANA Stewardship Transition. Key dates 15 Nov 2015 A high-level overview of Work Stream 1 Recommendations and a summary of changes from the 2nd Draft Proposal to be: Released for a 35-day public comment period Sent to the CCWG-Accountability’s Chartering Organizations for their feedback 30 Nov 2015 Full third draft report on Work Stream 1 Recommendations released for 20 days of consultation Early Jan 2016 Amended report submitted to Chartering Organizations Mid Jan 2016 Potential face-to-face meeting for Chartering Organizations, if needed, to decide whether to support the report Mid Jan 2016 CCWG-Accountability to submit final report to the ICANN Board, enabling the ICG to also submit its final report For more information on the amendments that the CCWG-Accountability decided to pursue in Dublin, see the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability ICANN54 co-Chairs' Statement <https://www.icann.org/news/blog/Cross%20Community%20Working%20Group%20on%20…>.
