A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Extended Incident Handling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Incident Handling: Real-Time Inter-Network Defense

Network security incidents such as Denial of Service (DoS), system
    compromises, worms, and viruses typically result in the loss of
    service, data, and resources both human and system.  Security
    incidents can be detrimental to the health of the network as a
    whole.  Network Providers (NP) need to be equipped and ready to
    assist in tracing security incidents with tools and procedures in
    place before the occurrence of an attack.  This paper proposes a
    proactive inter-network communication method to integrate existing
    tracing mechanisms across NP boundaries to identify the source(s)
    of an attack. The various methods implemented to detect and trace
    attacks must be coordinated on the NPs network as well as provide a
    communication mechanism across network borders.  It is imperative
    that NPs have quick communication methods defined to enable
    neighboring NPs to assist in tracking a security incident across
    the Internet.  This proposal integrates current incident detection
    and tracing practices for network traffic, which could be extended
    for security incident handling.  Policy guidelines for handling
    incidents are recommended and can be agreed upon by a consortium
    using the defined protocol and extended to each NP's clients.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
