<div dir="ltr">Dear PC, <div><br></div><div>I just shared the CPH WG on DNS Abuse on the list, but am sharing Keith's email below with you all. It would be really important for us to form a little group to discuss whether we can achieve a NCSG position on the topic and engage with the community about it. </div><div><br></div><div>This is an issue that Rafik has brought to our attention to before but we never really managed to set forth. Last year we were even planning on organizing a webinar on this topic, maybe this is something we can bring back to our plans in anticipation for icann 70. </div><div><br></div><div>Apart from the webinar, I would kindly ask you to let me know if you would be interested in setting a call with the CPH WG. </div><div><br></div><div>best, <br>Bruna <br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>From: <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Drazek, Keith</strong> <span dir="auto"><<a href="mailto:kdrazek@verisign.com">kdrazek@verisign.com</a>></span><br>Date: Fri, Jan 22, 2021 at 5:44 PM<br>Subject: Engagement on DNS Abuse<br>To: <a href="mailto:bruna.mrtns@gmail.com">bruna.mrtns@gmail.com</a> <<a href="mailto:bruna.mrtns@gmail.com">bruna.mrtns@gmail.com</a>><br>Cc: Brian F.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Bruna,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope you’re doing well and staying healthy and safe. I am reaching out to you on behalf of the Contracted Party House DNS Abuse Working Group as we look ahead to ICANN 70 and the rest of 2021.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Contracted Party House (CPH) DNS Abuse Group is conducting outreach to our friends in other SO/AC/SG/Cs regarding DNS Abuse. As previously noted by the CPH,
<a href="https://rrsg.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/CPH-Definition-of-DNS-Abuse.pdf" target="_blank">
<span style="color:#1155cc">DNS Abuse</span></a> comprises five categories: phishing, pharming, malware, botnets, and spam when it acts as a delivery mechanism for one of the other forms of DNS Abuse.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We want to open a more direct dialogue to understand pain points, hear suggestions and identify common ground where we can work together to mitigate DNS Abuse. Is there a subset of the NCSG focusing on DNS Abuse questions that would be
able to join the CPH DNS Abuse group on a call to discuss this topic? We want to encourage frank and productive discussions on the topic that lead to really informing our dialogues and actions.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a starting point, we propose the following questions to guide our discussion. Are there any questions NCSG would like discuss?:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">What information do you use and how do you use it to assess DNS Abuse levels?
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">What are the NCSG’s pain points regarding DNS Abuse?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Are you seeing practices from registrars or registries you find helpful?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please let us know if a subgroup of the NCSG would be willing to join us. Our group meets regularly on Tuesdays at 1500 UTC. If so, please propose a Tuesday when you are available.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
