For name, I agree with Nat's suggestion of 'Abuse and Account Take Over
Coordination Work Group (AATOC Work Group)'. This just prevents a name
change for everyone as well as the mailing list mechanics.

@mike, I think your suggestions about defining trust frameworks also make
sense. Do you have any good examples of where this has been done? Will need
to discuss this with the rest of the group but in our discussion of
transport, there have been some implicit trust framework concepts at play.
In the end, I think there may be different models about with whom info is
shared. This will depend on the specific data we define, the quality of
data that service providers can share, and the relevant privacy policies of
those providers.

thanks,
AD

>>>>>
>>>>>    - Share information about important security events in order to
>>>>>    thwart attackers from leveraging compromised accounts from one Service

>>>>>
>>>>>    - Security events
>>>>>    These are events – whether directly authentication-related or
>>>>>    occurring at another time in the user flow – that take place on one service
>>>>>    that could also have security implications on other Service Providers. The
>>>>>    group will develop a taxonomy of security events and a common set of
>>>>>    semantics to express relevant information about a security event.
>>>>>
>>>>>     - Privacy Implications
>>>>>    Sharing security information amongst providers has potential
>>>>>    privacy implications for both end users and service providers. These
>>>>>    privacy implications must be balanced against the recognized benefits of
>>>>>    protecting users’ accounts and data from abuse.  The group will consider
>>>>>    ways to optimize this balance when defining mechanisms to handle the
>>>>>    various security events and recommend best practices for the industry.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>    - Communications mechanisms
>>>>>    Define bindings for the use of an existing transport protocol
>>>>>    defined elsewhere.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>    - Event schema
>>>>>    Define a schema describing relevant events and relationships to
>>>>>    allow for dissemination between interested and authorized parties.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>    - Account recovery mechanisms
>>>>>
>>>>> Standardized mechanism(s) to allow providers to signal that a user has
>>>>> regained control of an account, or allow a user to explicitly restore
>>>>> control of a previously compromised account, with or without direct user
>>>>> involvement.
>>>>>  Out of scope:
>>>>> Determining the account quality/reputation of a user on a particular
>>>>> service and communicating that to others.
>>>>>
>>>>> Definition of APIs and underlying mechanisms for connecting to,
>>>>> interacting with and operating centralized databases or intelligence
>>>>> clearinghouses when these are used to communicate security events between
>>>>> account providers.
>>>>>
>>>>> 4) Proposed Deliverables
>>>>> The group proposes the following Non-Specification deliverables:
>>>>>
>>>>> Security Event and Account Lifecycle Schema
>>>>>
>>>>>    - A taxonomy of security events and a common set of semantics to
>>>>>    express relevant information about a security event and its relationships
>>>>>    to other relevant data, events or indicators.

>>>>> Security Event Privacy Guidelines

>>>>> The group proposes the following Specification deliverables:

>>>>> Order of Deliverables

>>>>> 5) Anticipated audience or users
>>>>>
>>>>>    - Service Providers who manage their own account systems which
>>>>>    require an email address or phone number for registration.
>>>>>    - Account and email providers that understand key security events
>>>>>    that happen to a user’s account.
>>>>>    - Identity as a Service (IDaaS) vendors that manage account and
>>>>>    authentication systems for their customers.
>>>>>    - Users seeking to regain control of a compromised account.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> 6) Language
>>>>> English
>>>>>
>>>>> 7) Method of work:
>>>>>
>>>>> E-mail discussions on the working group mailing list, working group
>>>>> conference calls, and face-to-face meetings from time to time.
>>>>>
>>>>>  8) Basis for determining when the work is completed:

>>>>> Rough consensus and running code. The work will be completed once it

>>>>> consistent with the purpose and scope.
