Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
As discussed yesterday during the call, regarding stress test #11, I
would like to suggest the following edit to the "proposed
accountability measure". <br>

Suggested addition ; best practice of accountability in terms of
information security could be added to the CCWG recommendations.
They include :<br>
- adoption of audit policies including the practice of regular (at
least once a year in terms of security) external audits, inclusion
of reports regarding audit policy compliance into annual reports. <br>
- certification according to security international standards (such
as ISO 27001), and publication of outcome of certification audits
summaries (these standards generally require regular, more focused
audits)<br>

<br>
While this is typically work stream 2, I guess we'd better record it
right away. <br>
<br>
I also believe this type of recommendation could be helpful with
regards to stress tests #1 and #2 and, more generally, to
demonstrate Icann's accountability to its purpose of excellence in
operations. Business excellence standards commitment, and external
assessments would certainly be appropriate, not only for IANA
operations but for all of Icann operations, from the most
technically oriented to the organisation of meetings or support of
policy decisions. I can testify of this first-hand since this is a
key reason why Afnic (other ccTLD managers did that as well) engaged
into both EFQM external assessments (to demonstrate the excellence
of our operations to our customers and stakeholders) and ISO27001
(for the security aspects). <br>

Stress Tests</a> to what the CWG and CCWG are presently

<div><br>
</div>
<div>As we’ve said, you can’t apply stress tests
definitively until you have a defined mechanism/structure
to test. </div>

</div>
<div>Nonetheless, we’ll do our best with the proposed
mechanisms at this point. </div>

<div>Please review over the weekend and provide edits. We
can discuss on our call Wednesday 11-March at 11:00 UTC.</div>
