FIRST DRAFT SUBMITTED
The ALAC welcomes the publication of the FY14 SSR Framework and commends the ICANN Security Team for the quality of the document. The change in format from the PowerPoint presentation of recent years to a formal written document does not detract from the clarity of the information contained.
The focus of Part B of this document provides excellent detail on the activities of the ICANN Security Team. The ALAC strongly supports the many and varied activities of the ICANN Security Team focused on technical engagement, outreach, training and capability building both within and beyond the ICANN Community. It is important that funding for these activities continues to be made available in the ICANN Budget.
Noting that the intention of Part B is to present the SSR activities being undertaken and planned across ICANN the Community, the ALAC suggests that some additional detail of activities being undertaken outside the Security Team would be helpful. While a number of these are mentioned in the document, this tends in some cases to be in the context of the Security Team providing (very worthwhile) support to the activities of other groups, rather than the work of the other groups themselves. The report would benefit from broadening its perspective from ICANN the Organization to ICANN the Community. This can probably be achieved by presenting the existing information in a slightly different way, with slightly more detail.
Related to the above comment, the ALAC suggests that an additional dot point might be added to the following section on p16 as below:
Security at ICANN can be viewed as:
- A Core Value for ICANN, in the Affirmation of Commitments
- One of the Four Focus Areas of the Strategic Plan
- An overall thematic area cutting across the organization
- An Advisory Committee within the ICANN Community
- A department within the ICANN Organization
- An essentially element in projects and activities
Tracking of implementation progress of the SSR Review Team Recommendations is particularly useful in Appendix A.
The first draft submitted will be placed here before the call for comments begins.
