Drew Thanks for sharing this I think it’s a really good idea to try and get some metrics of what it’s costing us all to deal with abuse so this kind of research could be very valuable Regards Michele (Disclosure – I’m involved with the SDF ) -- Mr Michele Neylon Blacknight Solutions Hosting, Colocation & Domains http://www.blacknight.host/ http://blog.blacknight.com/ http://www.blacknight.press - get our latest news & media coverage http://www.technology.ie Intl. +353 (0) 59 9183072 Direct Dial: +353 (0)59 9183090 Social: http://mneylon.social ------------------------------- Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd, Unit 12A,Barrowside Business Park,Sleaty Road,Graiguecullen,Carlow,Ireland Company No.: 370845 From: Drew Bagley Date: Thursday 16 April 2015 14:32 To: "anti-abuse-wg@ripe.net<mailto:anti-abuse-wg@ripe.net>" Subject: [anti-abuse-wg] Secure Domain Foundation anti-abuse cost research Greetings, I help lead the Secure Domain Foundation in its efforts to curb domain abuse through information sharing. We are currently trying to learn more about the cost of abuse and abuse mitigation for registrars, registries, and hosting companies. This will help us determine new ways to make proactive anti-abuse good for business. To assist us in this effort, we have created a brief survey: http://goo.gl/forms/UMckkncSTX If you are willing to participate then it would be terrific if you could complete the survey by April 30th. Thank you so much in advance for your help. Please let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Sincerely, Drew -- Drew Bagley Director of Operations Secure Domain Foundation drew@securedomain.org<mailto:drew@securedomain.org>
