UPDATING YOUR ABUSE CONTACT INFORMATION – INCIDENT RESPONSE TEAM

In March 2010, the APNIC community reached consensus on prop-079: Abuse contact
information, which amends the APNIC Whois Database by directing abuse reports to
specialized mandatory IRT contacts. Incident Response Teams (IRTs) are
specialized teams that specifically resolve computer security incidents.

In November 2010, APNIC implemented mandatory IRT references in the APNIC Whois
Database. The IRT object reference is mandatory when any inetnum, inet6um and
aut-num objects are updated or created in the whois. Together with this policy
implementation, the abuse-mailbox attribute was removed from ‘role’ objects in
early 2011.

See the IRT object template for more information.

On 30 June 2019, APNIC implemented prop-125: Validation of “abuse-mailbox” and
other IRT emails. This policy requires all contacts registered in IRT objects to
be validated every six months, to ensure the abuse mailbox is monitored and
responsive to legitimate abuse reports. Failure to validate IRT contacts is a
breach of policy, will result in objects being marked as ‘Invalid’, and access
to MyAPNIC will be limited.

APNIC recommends you alert responsible staff and ask them to monitor their IRT
contacts. We also suggest that you review and update your IRT contacts now in
MyAPNIC for a smoother validation process.

APNIC will also now be publishing an ‘abuse-c’ attribute for resource records in
the APNIC Whois Database. The ‘abuse-c’ attribute will reference to a ‘role’
object, which will contain the same contact information currently visible in the
Member’s IRT object. Any changes to the abuse-c information will need to be done
in the IRT object as the abuse-c attribute is generated automatically from the
IRT object.

Learn how to manage your IRT object with this guide.


THE IMPORTANCE OF UPDATING YOUR ABUSE CONTACT INFORMATION

 * Dedicated contacts or teams that specifically resolve computer security
   incidents
 * Stops the tech-c and admin-c from getting reports of abuse
 * Efficient and accurate response
 * Shared response to address abuse

“Ensuring that there is a dedicated contact or department that specifically
resolves security issues will limit potential damage and enhance recovery.”

More and more IRTs are also working together to share response strategies, to
more quickly allow networks to identify and prevent abuse and other security
problems.


WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

 * Become familiar with the changes to the following policies
 * Become familiar with the requirements of prop-125 and the IRT object template
 * Ensure your IRT contacts are up-to-date and contactable
 * Regularly monitor the abuse mailbox and act on abuse reports, where
   appropriate
 * Find an upstream ISP willing to be the contact for abuse reports related to
   your network

Incident Response Teams



IRTs or Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs) specifically respond
to computer security incident reports and activity.

They are dedicated abuse handling teams, (as distinct from network operational
departments) which review and respond to abuse reports resulting in efficient
and accurate resolution of security incidents and activity.
