The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has published a draft Framework for the Registry Operators to Respond to Security Threats, asking for comments from the Internet community. The draft Framework is aimed to provide non-binding guidance on how registry operators of generic top-level domains (gTLDs) may respond to security threats. It gives an overview of the security issues law enforcement face, and outlines options available for operators to address them. Examples of actions that operators can take in response to security threats include holding the domain name so it does not resolve, locking the domain name so it cannot be changed, transferring the domain names, and deleting the domain names (a measure recommended to be taken with careful due consideration and direction for appropriate authorities.
