* In the [[CSG]]-ICANN Board joint meeting, [[Lori Schulman]] and [[Brian King]], both of the ([[IPC]]), offered five pieces of advice:
 +
# how to coordinate messaging to governments and IGOS: ICANN's tripartite arrangement (ICANN  Board, Org, and Community) is important but for the purpose of advocacy, it might not be the best model. We should be one in messaging, and unified talking points should be circulated.
 +
#  tracking legislation: ICANN should better engage internally and make a hub to access information from all of the ICANN volunteers; figure out who our friends are on [[cybersecurity]], [https://www.europarl.europa.eu/thinktank/en/document.html?reference=EPRS_BRI(2021)689333NIS2 NIS2], and [[Whois]] issues (to help us interpret them); make better use of [[GAC]] member for early warning signs of potential legislation-related issues; stop thinking of GAC as a monolith;
 +
# GAC members should bring along their cybersecurity, [[Data Privacy]], and Intellectual property office representatives to gain their perspectives earlier, as they offer a clear picture of the balance between commercial and public interests in their nations; and

# pay more attention to [[ccTLD]] operators to see how they're managing legislation responses.

===[[DNS Abuse]]===
* [[Trusted Notifier|Trusted Notifier Framework]]
+
* In the public forum, [[Steve DelBianco]] asked the Board if they would support updating contracts to enforce DNS abuse mitigation across the industry. [[Becky Burr]] said [[Contractual Compliance]] believes it has the right tools for right now.
 +
* In the [[NCSG]] membership meeting, [[Theo Geurts]], of [[Realtime Register#RiskReact|RiskReact]], presented a demonstration of [[Realtime Register]]'s DNS abuse monitoring system<ref>[https://realtimeregister.com/blog/security-threat-monitoring-beta/ Security Threat Dashboard, Realtime Register Blog]</ref> and discussed the implications of a couple of significant findings:
 +
*# 82% of malicious activity is happening at the [[URL]] level, and thus, out of the technical and policy reach of ICANN's contracted parties. Abuse happening at this level falls under the remit of resellers and web hosters.
 +
*# [[Compromised Domain|Hacked websites]] are now overtaking [[Malicious Domain|maliciously registered domains]] in terms of DNS abuse, which limits access to investigative tools and necessary evidence to catch the perpetrators. Regulation flowing down the hierarchy cannot reach this type of activity because the hackers do not provide accurate email addresses, money trails, or registration data. At best, investigators may find something in the payload. In turn, phishing attacks can go unnoticed and unpunished.
 +
** [[Samaneh Tajalizadehkhoob]] said ICANN's [[OCTO]] is wondering how to choose which [[RBL]] to use because the office is developing a methodology for selecting RBLs, and Theo responded: look at the metrics (where they get their data from, check for alignment with what you are looking for, a large number of hits).
 +
** [[Stephanie Perrin]] explained that much of the activity is not DNS abuse and perhaps not even criminal; so, how do we regulate this realm? Theo explained that he only looks at RBLs that focus on DNS Abuse (and [[CSAM]], which is automatically taken down). Perrin also asked: how do we regulate state-sponsored mischief?
 +
* In the [[CSG]]-[[ICANN Board]] joint meeting, [[Avri Doria]] explained that the [[CCT]] and [[Second Security, Stability, and Resiliency Review]] (SSR2) generated a significant number of recommendations that address [[DNS Abuse]] and [[DNS Abuse Responses|threat mitigation]] and should be considered together in a comprehensive way to fully understand how [[ICANN]] can approach their implementation.
 +
* In the "CPH DNS Abuse Work Group Community Update", [[Keith Drazek]] presented on the [[RySG|Registries]] and [[RrSG|Registrars]] Stakeholder Groups' [[Trusted Notifier Framework]], which is a guide for parties entering [[Trusted Notifier]] arrangements.<ref>[https://rrsg.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Final-CPH-Notifier-Framework-6-October-2021.pdf Trusted Notifier Framework, CPH, RRSG.org]</ref> The framework explains the role, responsibilities, and expectations of Trusted Notifiers.

** Sac117 (see also octo-15). Root zone can’t grow infinitely. Is there a way to see whether there will be imminent demise of the dns? We can collect and analyze data about the DNS's behavior/nature but it’s not possible to have an early warning system or no when it will collapse

** flattening the DNS solves some technical issues but creates problems around resolving queries for which the hierarchical architecture is better suited; if different labels lead to different behaviors, then we will be in unchartered territory; we've seen a little a bit of this with [[IDN]]s. It will be unpredictable for the entire system

** [[Ram Mohan]]: Universal Acceptance is not *really* a technical issue. The biggest challenge is not technology, it is overcoming apathy and lack of care from providers. The various ideas on increasing education and getting governments involved are useful. If governments required UA-Readiness as a pre-requisite to bid in procurements, I suspect we would see an immediate jump in acceptance.

===SSAD===
On 17 May 2018, the [[ICANN Board]] approved the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data to allow [[CPH|contracted parties]] to [[Contractual Compliance|comply with ICANN contractual]] requirements while also complying with the [[GDPR|European Union's General Data Protection Regulation]], triggering a GNSO Council initiation of a PDP on 19 July 2018. Phase 1 was to confirm the Temporary Specification by 25 May 2019. Phase 2 was chartered to discuss a standardized access model to nonpublic registration data, aka '''SSAD'''.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/en/public-comment/proceeding/initial-report-of-the-expedited-policy-development-process-epdp-on-the-temporary-specification-for-gtld-registration-data-team--phase-2a-03-06-2021 Initial Report of the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data Team – PHASE 2A, ICANN Public Comment]</ref>

* In the public forum, [[Griffin Barnett]] notified the Board that the [[BC]], [[IPC]], the [[NomCom]] appointed representative for the [[NCPH]] did not approve the Phase 2A Final Report at the GNSO Council Vote, because the report does not require differentiation between natural and legal person data processing consistent with the GDPR or publication of a pseudonymized rather than anonymized or web form registrant email (needed to re-enable cross-domain correlation for DNS abuse law enforcement and cybersecurity efforts). [[Mason Cole]] asked why Privacy and Proxy Services Accreditation Implementation ([[PPSAI]]) is being held up by the SSAD ODP. [[Becky Burr]] explained that now it's held up due to [[Prioritization Framework|Prioritization]] in that [[EPDP]] Phase 2A needs to go first.
 
* [[ALAC]] expressed unhappiness to the [[ICANN Board]] over [[SSAD]] [[ODP]], EPDP phase 2 recommendations, emphasizing SSAD would probably not be worth the cost and would run into trouble with NIS2 when passed.

* The [[BC]] was presented with a model and demo capable of supporting both sides of the SSAD challenge. It provides the verifiable claims to support the evaluation of requests from requesters and allows the logic engine to evaluate the lawfulness of the request, even if the backend remains manual on the [[registrar]] side.

** [[Rod Rasmussen]] (SSAC Chair) responded, 1) SSAD's problems are going to lead to a lack of adoption. 2) ICANN is spending too much time focusing on fixing problems and not enough time on what we want to accomplish, which could be a way forward on unification.

* In the CPH-ICANN Board joint meeting, [[Becky Burr]] pondered whether something could have been done sooner (by the ICANN Board or its liaisons) to foresee issues with [[SSAD]] and consider the implications earlier in the [[PDP]]; this is now the point of the [[ODP]].

Volunteers may not up to taking up new work as a consequence. Maybe scoping reviews could limit the number of future recommendations. But in the CPH, concerns remain over the backlog of recommendations sitting with the board, retrospectively applied prioritization, the credibility and legitimacy of ICANN externally and internally, the addition of processes before implementation; the potential for a chilling effect on the [[ICANN Community]]; and the "[[Accountability]] of ICANN" to implement recommendations within a reasonable time frame.
