1. Joint efforts in incident response in AP region and future work with RIR Suguru Yamaguchi JPCERT/CC

2. Overview Work called “Incident Response” Why do we need international coordination? Internet Registry has a key role to accelerate incident response tasks

3. Security Management Detection –Mechanism how we know incidents Protection –Mechanism how we can protect our system, designed and implemented beforehand. –“measures” Response –Work against security incidents

4. Analysis on Attacks Involved sites Technical Corporation Involved sites Advisors Vendors IR and Coordination Providing help on problem solutions –Information –Coordination –confidentiality

5. APSIRC APSIRC – Asia Pacific Security Incident Response Coordination –Originally developed by APNG in 1998 –SingCERT, CERTCC/KR, JPCERT –In 2002, conference was hold in Tokyo, Japan – “APSIRC2002” Annual conference for open regional forum on security management on the Internet Mainly supported by Japan financially. Next meeting will be held in Feb/Mar timeframe in somewhere in Asia [ KL in March, Taipei in Feb ]

6. APCERTF Asia Pacific Computer Emergency Response Task Force –Proposed by AusCERT –“Leading” IRT forms a task force for Stable and reliable contact point for each economy Development and deployment of leading edge technology and engineering for CSIRT operation –IODEF by SurfNET –Automatic information exchange and making info. Repository Public awareness Working with government actors –Mainly for intergovernmental workplace »APEC TEL WG (at Moscow meeting in August 2002) »ASEAN / ASEAN+3

10. APCERTF Structure (proposed) Steering Committee (SC) –elected by APCERTF Members –2 years term –Determine direction and priorities Chair –elected by 2/3 of SC –2 years term –coordination of SC Secretariat –general contact point maintain records of Member information –administrative point for APCERTF Members –leading CSIRTs from each Asia-Pacific economies Associate Members –sponsored by an APCERTF Member –no voting right Advisory Committee –technical experts invited by the Steering Committee to provide technical advice on IT security issues –no voting right

12. Work with RIR Each registry knows everything –Use of IP address and domain: “whois” database –Once IRR is available, fundamental routing information is also available via registry Information is a key to accelerate incident responses –Solution development of counter measures –CSIRT want information precise and accurate enough Each registry sometimes has its own role to guide how ISP should react on incident response –Registries have full contact to ISP –At least, APNIC is a light house (not a forerunner) of ISP’s responsibility.

13. Summary APSIRC and APCERTF –APSIRC: Regional forum of CSIRT and related organizations –APCERTF: Task force for “upgrading” CSIRT activities in this AP region With RIR –More contact and collaboration –Sharing information, especially precise and accurate “whois” database.
