[TSG-Access-RD] Data Transport/Storage and Audit

[Eleeza Agopian]

Thanks, Andy. After our call, the ICANN org team chatted with Ram to revise the F2F agenda. A new version now exists in the Google doc here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gort0hu12tXo3bG1t0gq1zLW6REmF6dNeaR2aQbjBF0/edit# I've also attached a Word version. 

Thanks,
Eleeza

Subject: [TSG-Access-RD] Data Transport/Storage and Audit

On the agenda for the F2F next week, there is a section titled "Data Transport/Storage and Audit".

The following are the items:

1. For queries that are required to be logged, how would a specification allow choices on who would log such queries and how such logging could be done?
2. How could a query that is required not to be logged be identified as such?
3. How could access be provided to authorized parties when it is decided who/how/when logs may be accessed?

To jump start that part of our discussion and because engineers gotta engineer, I'd like to suggest we consider the following:

For the second part of question 1 ("how such logging could be done"), I recommend using Json Lines (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__jsonlines.org_&d=DwICAg&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=YHDWysfNgG9kn4Mk3Oyp9ccgD3bKUf2w88Lvdup8hZw&m=BzBe2tnF6C6OTqGq6jPeVWxHjm2jlbzFa7UeqMBJRhE&s=jjn3w861WOMcJpCh3OsH0reZ1dc13IjCWjRP_cVHoLE&e=) as the format.
This gives us extensibility in a format where each logged query can simply be appended to the file. It also doesn't require the receiver to use a pull parser. Even a bash script and a few utilities can break down the file.

For question 3, I propose that the files be made available on a web site, and they be PGP encrypted. Therefore access to the information can be granted via key distribution.
