Re: [anti-abuse-wg] Correct info in RIPE-database - YES

Now to tackle this problem: Shouldn't there be a phone-number or a hotline for BGP-issues? Especially with big problems it's a real problem to get to the right helpdesk/support. I know that some endusers who receive a spam email would contact that hotline also, however: is it possible to show that info only if a person is logged in into the LIR-portal?
Just what Im asking for years now for. More easier would be an anonymous abuse contact wich could only by emailed to from registered email addresses from other RIPE members. So: every member would simply enter too email addresses and one (or more) IPs into their basic data at the portal. - one abuse contact - one sender email address - one or more IP address of the own sending mailservers And the Mailserver at RIPE will e.g. redirected a general as1234@members.ripe.net to the right abuse contact of that member. And: RIPE could even monitor outbreaks to one or the other member address to get an indication if there is an eval or non-responsive member (e.g. with not working mail addresses, full mailboxes aso). RIPE NCC could also monitor if a member becomes a bit to active or tries to flood other members. Telephone numbers seem to spread, so they will not be hidden after a while, but email is cool, because the receiver could handle these emails much quicker, because they could be more sure, that its coming from qualified other members, hopefully resulting in a much quicker action. Just an example: we filed a report at the usual abuse address of a bigger server housing provider in Germany arround 3 weeks ago , that one of their servers seemed to be captured and started to guess passwords on some of our POP3 servers. Now: after 3 weeks, be received a note, that our report will now be analysed. Whats about all those spam, all those DDoS attacks, pishing sites, whatever abuse, this server was causing the last 3 weeks to others ? And: just fiddled with our firewalls and can see, that this server is still trying to attack us ! Kind regards, Frank

Frank So why don't you blackhole their network? You cannot force anyone to respond to abuse reports and you cannot force anyone to act on them either. All you can hope to do is educate people so that: - providers believe it's in their interest to act - buyers choose vendors (providers) who act I went into this during my presentation in Rome :) Regards Michele Mr Michele Neylon Blacknight Solutions Hosting & Colocation, Brand Protection ICANN Accredited Registrar http://www.blacknight.com/ http://blog.blacknight.com/ http://blacknight.mobi/ http://mneylon.tel Intl. +353 (0) 59 9183072 US: 213-233-1612 UK: 0844 484 9361 Locall: 1850 929 929 Direct Dial: +353 (0)59 9183090 Twitter: http://twitter.com/mneylon ------------------------------- Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd, Unit 12A,Barrowside Business Park,Sleaty Road,Graiguecullen,Carlow,Ireland Company No.: 370845

This is exactly the mechanism on which we (OPTA) recently developed an enforcement strategy; educate hosting ISP's in NL from which we see abuse that is within our enforcement range: spam and malware. If the normal abuse mechanisms do not work the way they should we start to use our LEA capabilities to apply pressure. This has proven to be very effective: lots of cases solved with small efforts. In most cases this pressure moved the ISPs started to gather reports on their own networks and act by themselves. Of course, we can only do this within our jurisdiction, but it would be nice if other spam/malware legislative bodies start doing this too, or any body that can apply some real pressure.

Disagreed. We have to talk about both, abusers and ISPs/LIRs. You cannot educate abusers, simply because they do it on effort.

LEA has their place in the larger scheme of things. It wouldnt be a bright idea to underrate, or underestimate them.
LEA actions only works, if the abusing server and the administrator of the attacked service are located in the same country and surely are last resort (well, works in Germany quite well, very ignorant ISPs could be brought to court, if they ignore reports, because everybody in Germany is urged to prevent crime from others, if he has knowledge and the possibility to prevent it).

Not every LEA operates in criminal law. OPTA works under administrative law as an *independent* regulatory body (but with serious capabilities, like 'subpoena' and 'search warrant' equivalents), and as such has several degrees of freedom more than 'the police'. That being said, the strategy I've talked about earlier could just as easy be deployed by a small 'internet police' team. It's about proactivity and education (which is fast), not about court cases (which are painfully slow). It is however not a way of working traditional LEA is accustomed to.

But we have to educate or raise the communication level between ISPs/LIRs.
Like my example described: most abuse NOCs or very, very slow, uneducated, not interested, do not want to spend money aso.
Which isn't helped by a lot of the abuse reports that they get sent .. Something which could actually help would be work on better abuse report formats ..
I system that raises the level or trusted report sources, that only works between LIRs, could help, because - any LIR could be force to enter his details, so he will READ any description, why this system was introduced - reports from other, experienced LIRs/ISPs could be trusted, simply because they are experienced, they will not behave like normal end users, will try to use standarized reporting formats, present all needed infos and detailed log excerpts e.g and simply because they also want the same kind of qualified reports from others
There's a lot of this stuff going on already in "trusted" circles.
An introduction of such a anonymous communication server via RIPE NCCs servers could also be accompanied with snail mail, email, announcements, in the regulary RIPE reports, meetings aso …
You have to be very very careful how that is handled ..
LEA has their place in the larger scheme of things. It wouldnt be a bright idea to underrate, or underestimate them.

Not true Sure it's easier if they are in the same country, but if LEA works with their counterparts there's no reason why it cannot cross borders ..

To be fair, I think it has been very hard to follow what has been written to the list over the last week or so. A significant number of messages have not been clearly written and may well not have been thought through before being sent. Focusing on the definitions issue, it would be useful to have an agreed set of definitions for some of the terms used. Is there a commonly agreed list? Thanks, Leo
Hi I would be happy to focus on what Pepijn proposed, and what Brian Nisbet promised to take to the NCC - detailed stats on LIR audits. I would also welcome some input from ICANN on (for example) the SSAC and other related work on whois accuracy, cooperation and engagement with the various registries on mitigating abuse .. thanks --srs On Wed, Aug 10, 2011 at 7:54 PM, Leo Vegoda <leo.vegoda@icann.org> wrote:

Thank you for answering that, Suresh. While I do wonder what definitions people are looking for, you have just said, in an excellent way, what I was thinking of saying. Brian.
So Brian, being the chair, is there any possibility to sum up few things here like the problem statement (I guess it was fake Whois initially) because as suresh said 3-4 ppl will always going to debate on the same issues again n again than why not these ppl can come up with a suggestion towards solution.

As an aside and fyi, I *may* and hope to be in a position to report about the state of affairs and issues, or even emerging results, of ICANN's RT4 on "whois policy"[1] at RIPE63. While this activity is primarily targetting the names whois, my expectation is that some of the findings (and inputs, like from LEA and data protection support) may also be of interest to the IP resource registry whois environment. The target date for delivery of the RT's report is before the end of 2011. I am on this RT as endorsed by the Address Council, as well as trying to contribute my experience with registry issues from the RIPE DB-WG and some CERT stuff. The RT's next major F2F meeting is scheduled for September in Los Angeles.
thanks --srs

To be fair, I think it has been very hard to follow what has been written to the list over the last week or so. A significant number of messages have not been clearly written and may well not have been thought through before being sent.
Focusing on the definitions issue, it would be useful to have an agreed set of definitions for some of the terms used. Is there a commonly agreed list?

I'm a strong believer in self-regulation - so education is always going to be the preferred route for me - LEA can be too heavyhanded
Agreed. That is why the strategy is based on education, not on enforcement. But it is clear from the beginning that if the right lessons are not learnt, enforcement is a very real option. But in practice we rarely meet uncooperative 'students'; most of them are eager to learn.
Of course. Please do try to educate a botmaster, snowshoe spammer, nigerian scam artist etc.
That is exactly why we focus on the facilitators, in this case the hosting providers, and their need to act quickly on badness in their networks. And that is why we badly need correct WHOIS records, to bring the discussion back to that topic. Although we can mostly work around incorrect WHOIS records, it is annoying.

This is exactly the mechanism on which we (OPTA) recently developed an enforcement strategy; educate hosting ISP's in NL from which we see abuse that is within our enforcement range: spam and malware. If the normal abuse mechanisms do not work the way they should we start to use our LEA capabilities to apply pressure. This has proven to be very effective: lots of cases solved with small efforts. In most cases this pressure moved the ISPs started to gather reports on their own networks and act by themselves.
Of course, we can only do this within our jurisdiction, but it would be nice if other spam/malware legislative bodies start doing this too, or any body that can apply some real pressure.
I think the FICORA approach and environment would be another good example.

Such activities are probably considerably more successful than trying to turn the RIPE NCC into a "Super-NOC" or Incident Coordination HotSpot. Wilfried.
