The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Real-time Inter-network Defense (RID)' (draft-ietf-mile-rfc6045-bis-11.txt) as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Managed Incident Lightweight Exchange Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Sean Turner and Stephen Farrell. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mile-rfc6045-bis/ Technical Summary Real-time Inter-network Defense (RID) outlines a proactive inter-network communication method to facilitate sharing incident handling data while integrating existing detection, tracing, source identification, and mitigation mechanisms for a complete incident handling solution. Combining these capabilities in a communication system provides a way to achieve higher security levels on networks. The data in RID messages is represented in an XML document using IODEF [RFC5070] and the RID XML schema defined in this document. Working Group Summary There was extensive commentary on the pre-WG and WG mailing list on the document indicative of review, correction, and consensus. The working group process has been somewhat abbreviated, as the document is an update of an already-published RFC to change its intended status (Informational to Standards Track) and to apply minor updates. Consensus was reached without problems. Document Quality The document itself derived from the previously published (informational) RFC 6045. The XML schema was reviewed by two experts, one within the WG and one from outside. In addition to the review received within the MILE WG, much of the content within the document (both technical and editorial) has received extensive review prior to its initial publication as RFC6045 in November 2010. Personnel Brian Trammell (trammell@tik.ee.ethz.ch) is the document shepherd. Sean Turner is the responsible Area Director. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
