+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ The Internet Architecture Board (IAB) holds occasional workshops
+ designed to consider long-term issues and strategies for the
+ Internet, and to suggest future directions for the Internet
+ architecture. This long-term planning function of the IAB is
+ complementary to the ongoing engineering efforts performed by working
+ groups of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), under the
+ leadership of the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) and area
+ directorates.
+
+ The Internet Architecture Board (IAB) and the Internet Society (ISOC)
+ hosted a day-long Coordinating Attack Response at Internet Scale
+ (CARIS) workshop on 18 June 2015 in coordination with the Forum for
+ Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST) Conference in Berlin.
+ The workshop included members of the FIRST community, attack response
+ working group representatives, network and security operators,
+ Regional Internet Registry (RIR) representatives, researchers,
+ vendors, and representatives from standardization communities. The
+ key goals of the workshop were to improve mutual awareness,
+ understanding, and coordination among the diverse participating
+ organizations. The workshop also aimed to provide the attendees with
+ greater awareness of existing efforts to mitigate specific types of
+ attacks, and greater understanding of the options available to
+ collaborate and engage with these efforts.
+
+ The day-long workshop included a mix of invited talks and panel
+ discussion sessions with opportunities to collaborate throughout,
+ taking full advantage of the tremendous value of having these diverse
+ communities with common goals in one room. There were approximately
+ 50 participants engaged in the CARIS workshop.
+
+ Attendance at the workshop was by invitation only. Prior to the
+ workshop, existing attack-mitigation working groups were asked to
+ complete a survey. The data gathered through this questionnaire,
+ including how third parties can participate in or contribute to the
+ attack-mitigation working group, was shared with all of the
+ participants at the workshop to better enable collaboration [ISOC].
+ Attendees were also selected from submissions of two-page position
+ papers that included some key insight or challenge relevant to the
+ broader group. Paper topics included research topics related to
+ attack mitigation or information sharing/exchange, success stories,
+ lessons learned, and more in-depth studies on specific topics such as
+ privacy or trust.
+
+ The program committee received 25 papers and 19 template submissions.
+ The template submissions will be maintained by the Internet Society,
+ and as a result of the workshop, they will be amended to provide
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 3]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ additional value to the Computer Security Incident Response Teams
+ (CSIRTs) and attack response communities/operators on their
+ information exchange capabilities. The CARIS participants found the
+ template submissions to be very useful in coordinating their future
+ attack mitigation efforts. This initiative is a new, open for the
+ global community, and hosted in a neutral location. All submissions
+ are available online and are linked from the agenda [AGENDA].
+
+ The workshop talks and panels involved full participation from
+ attendees who were required to read all the submitted materials. The
+ panels were organized to spur conversation between specific groups to
+ see if progress could be made towards more efficient and effective
+ attack mitigation efforts. See [KME] for additional information on
+ possible approaches to accomplish more effective attack response and
+ information exchanges with methods that require fewer analysts.
+
+ The workshop was run under the Chatham House Rule to facilitate the
+ exchange of sensitive information involved with incident response.
+ As such, there was no recording, but minutes were taken and used to
+ aid in the generation of this report. Comments will not be
+ attributed to any particular attendee, nor will organizations be
+ named in association with any discussion topics that were not made
+ public through submission templates or papers by the submitter and
+ organization.
+
+2. Sessions and Panel Groups
+
+ After an initial presentation to set the stage and elaborate the
+ goals of the workshop, the day was divided into five sessions as
+ follows:
+
+ 1. Coordination between CSIRTs and attack-response mitigation
+ efforts
+
+ 2. Scaling response to Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) and
+ botnets effectively and safely
+
+ 3. Infrastructure: DNS and RIR providers and researchers
+
+ 4. Trust and Privacy with the exchange of potentially sensitive
+ information
+
+ 5. Implications for Internet architecture and next steps
+
+ The remainder of this report will provide more detail on each of
+ these sessions.

+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+2.1. Coordination between CSIRTs and Attack Response Mitigation Efforts
+
+ The first panel session on Coordination between CSIRTs and attack
+ mitigation efforts included representatives from several
+ organizations that submitted templates describing their
+ organization's attack mitigation efforts. This panel was
+ purposefully a cross section of organizations attending to see if
+ there were new opportunities to collaborate and improve efficiency,
+ thereby better scaling attack mitigation. The panelists described
+ their efforts with the following questions in mind:
+
+ o What is the use case for their organization?
+
+ o Where are they focusing their efforts?
+
+ o How can others engage with their organization?
+
+ o Who participates in their organization today?
+
+ For each of the following organizations, additional information can
+ be found in their template submissions [ISOC].
+
+ The following summaries are to be read in the context of the workshop
+ and not as standalone descriptions for each organization. These
+ summaries are a result of the workshop discussions.
+
+ o ENISA is the European Network and Information Security Agency
+ [ENISA]. While ENISA provides support for the community in the
+ form of education, training, and collaboration on security and
+ attack mitigation, it does not offer a service for attack response
+ or mitigation.
+
+ o The Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) offered examples of
+ operator-driven exchanges focused on specific use cases that
+ involve hundreds of participating organizations daily. The APWG
+ operates a data clearinghouse and provides infrastructure to
+ support meaningful data exchanges and maintains a current set of
+ data through these interactions. More can be learned on the APWG
+ website [APWG] in addition to their template submission.
+
+ o The Research and Education Networking Information Sharing and
+ Analysis Center (Ren-ISAC) employs an interesting operational
+ model that scales well through automation, exchanging actionable
+ information between 500 universities and automatically
+ implementing controls. Since many universities cannot respond to
+ incidents in real time due to a scarcity of resources, REN-ISAC
+ leverages a small number of analysts to accomplish the task of
+ protecting many universities through automation. The key to the
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 5]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ success of their project is providing tools that allow
+ organizations to make use of incident data operationally. They
+ are currently working to develop open-source tools to track
+ metrics more formally [REN-ISAC].
+
+ o CERT.br is the Brazilian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT)
+ that has made impressive progress in a short amount of time.
+ CERT.br is the national focal point for incident reporting,
+ collection, and dissemination of threat and attack trend
+ information in Brazil. CERT.br works to increase awareness and
+ incident-handling capabilities in the country as well as assisting
+ to establish new CSIRTs. In addition to providing training and
+ awareness campaigns, they distribute network security honeypots
+ and have a primary focus on network monitoring. CERT.br requires
+ active participation from third parties wishing to collaborate and
+ exchange data with them [CERT.BR].
+
+ o MyCERT's mission is to address the security concerns of Malaysian
+ Internet users and reduce the probability of successful attacks
+ [MYCERT]. They have been operational since 1997. MyCERT is
+ responsible for incident handling of unauthorized intrusions,
+ identity theft, DDoS attacks, etc. MyCERT handles computer
+ security incidents in Malaysia, provides malware research, and
+ technical coordination. In addition to incident response and
+ coordination activities, MyCERT members provide talks and
+ training, as well as local and regional security exercises.
+ MyCERT also provides incident alerts and advisories on
+ vulnerabilities, breaches, etc.
+
+ o The CERT Coordination Center (CERT/CC) has been operational since
+ 1998 on an international and national scale [CERTCC]. They have
+ long been known for their software vulnerability work and the
+ national vulnerability database in the US (Common Vulnerabilities
+ and Exposures -- CVEs) and informing organizations of
+ vulnerabilities. CERT/CC helps to coordinate between vendors and
+ researchers for improved collaborations. CERT/CC provides
+ guidance on dealing with the aftermath of incidents, risk
+ assessment best practice, bug bounties, and other incident-related
+ areas.
+
+ Highlights from the panel discussion:
+
+ o Passive surveillance by state actors has impacted incident
+ response activities due to the erosion of trust between
+ communities.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 6]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ o Government involvement in information exchange efforts has not
+ been productive. Despite lots of discussion, there have not been
+ useful outcomes.
+
+ o There is more interest in consuming feeds of information than
+ sharing information.
+
+ o Ego has been a big issue for improving data sharing, as have
+ reputation-related concerns when sharing or receiving data.
+
+ o There is a perception of weakness around organizations that share
+ attack information in some regions.
+
+ o Sharing in isolation doesn't help, it must lead to operational
+ return on investment.
+
+ o Language barriers have been an issue for some national CSIRTs.
+
+ o Sharing too much information leads to capacity and resource issues
+ for receiving organizations. Organizations directly receiving
+ feeds can often misinterpret data and think they are under attack
+ when it is not the case. Operational models are preferred where
+ data exchanges have a direct impact on improving the efficiency of
+ a small number of analysts to impact many.
+
+ o Privacy regulations restricting some organizations from sharing IP
+ address information have had an impact on the effectiveness of
+ incident data exchanges. ENISA is currently running a study on
+ this impact (this point was raised by several attendees).
+
+ o Too many efforts are using data just for blocking attacks and not
+ for operational mitigation and elimination of vulnerabilities as
+ part of their incident response effort. Note: Operational efforts
+ stand out in that they do eliminate threats and update data
+ warehouses.
+
+ o Involvement of vendors is needed to better scale attack response.
+ This is not seen as a need by all groups, but some sharing groups
+ with an operational focus are looking for improved efficiencies to
+ leverage a small number of analysts more productively. Analysts
+ are a limited resource in this technical area of expertise.
+
+ o Enterprises don't want more security boxes in their networks as
+ they don't have the resources to manage them, so involving vendors
+ doesn't mean deploying more equipment, but improving automated
+ controls and the elimination of threats wherever possible. False
+ positives are still an issue, which can be problematic for some
+ automation activities.

+
+
+2.2. Scaling Response to DDoS and Botnets Effectively and Safely
+
+ The first invited talk at the workshop provided an interesting
+ history of Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks and the
+ evolution of botnets as well as the methods to combat these threats.
+ The paper by Dave Dittrich [DD1] is available to learn more of this
+ history. This section of the report will focus on the workshop
+ discussion in an effort to benefit from the workshop attendees'
+ thoughts concerning how to better scale our response to these
+ threats.
+
+ Key points from the discussion:
+
+ o Of the attack types discussed, DDoS and botnets appear to be the
+ furthest along in terms of efficient and effective response.
+ Other efforts can learn from this experience. There has not been
+ any interaction between these two attack types that may benefit
+ from information exchange tied to remediation activities since
+ botnets can be the source of DDoS attacks.
+
+ o There is a disparity between short-term mitigation goals and
+ actual eradication of DDoS and botnet threats. The question was
+ raised: how do we normalize the same data in different ways to
+ serve different goals? In other words, DDoS traffic is often the
+ result of botnets, but the data is not shared between the service
+ providers and vendors responding to DDoS threats and those
+ actively mitigating and eradicating botnets.
+
+ o There are ad hoc trust groups within the operations security
+ (OPSEC) community today. The Cybercrime Response Advisory Group
+ (CRAG) is one example.
+
+ o Filtering and triage is an issue, but this is a solvable problem.
+
+ o The IETF DDOS Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) working group was
+ discussed and compared to a previous effort, Real-time Inter-
+ network defense (RID) [RFC6545]. It was stated that the two are
+ similar, except DOTS makes use of current data formats and
+ protocols and has the support of multiple DDoS vendors. One of
+ the goals of DOTS is to have this solution be the "glue" between
+ vendors to communicate shared data using standard formats and
+ protocols developed in open-source tools.
+
+ o The IETF Interface to Network Security Functions (I2NSF) effort
+ was discussed to explore ways of leveraging infrastructure to
+ combat DDoS attacks.
+
+
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 8]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ o Vendors discussed existing capabilities for DDoS mitigation, while
+ data-sharing groups discussed their mitigation activities related
+ to botnets (see the submissions under the heading "Panel on
+ Scaling Attack Response for DDoS and BotNets" in the workshop
+ agenda [AGENDA]).
+
+ o Trust and reputation of data sources is still a concern.
+
+ o One of the exchange groups has a goal of "automated takedowns" for
+ botnets. However, they think they will always have a need for
+ manual intervention.
+
+ o The need for multiple levels of trust seemed to be prevalent among
+ those participating in the panel discussion. Intelligence
+ agencies erode trust (this was also mentioned in the first panel
+ in terms of surveillance activities from governments).
+
+ o Although trust was discussed in this panel and there are concerns,
+ it was noted that trust is not as big a barrier for DDoS and
+ botnet mitigation, and this is likely due to the operational
+ experience of the participants.
+
+2.3. DNS and RIRs: Attack Response and Mitigation
+
+ This session was a shift from other sessions in the day as the
+ panelists were infrastructure providers for those combating attacks.
+ This session was of interest to see how attack and incident
+ responders could better collaborate with DNS infrastructure
+ organizations and RIRs. These groups have not interacted in the
+ past, and it was interesting to see the collaboration opportunities
+ since the workshop participants rely on these services to do their
+ jobs. From the panelists' perspective, DNS and RIRs are separate
+ worlds where they spend a lot of time trying to educate policy makers
+ about how they work together to make the Internet work.
+
+ Key discussion points:
+
+ o The use of passive DNS in attack mitigation was described.
+
+ o RIRs discussed the data they maintain and provide, including
+ worldwide BGP update data and root DNS server data. These
+ datasets are available to share with researchers and could be of
+ interest to those working on attack response. The current way the
+ data is made available does not scale, and ideas were discussed in
+ the workshop to improve the scalability should this become a more
+ widely used resource.
+
+
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 9]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ o Some of the global RIRs already actively coordinate with incident
+ responders in their region. In some cases, they do facilitate
+ information sharing as well as provide education and training.
+ Data shared out by RIRs is anonymized.
+
+ o A concern was raised regarding overlapping efforts and a request
+ was made for the IETF and ISOC to pay attention to this and help.
+ This workshop was one step toward that in bringing together this
+ diverse community. The participants wished to see this type of
+ event repeated for future cross area collaboration between the
+ diverse set of groups that often only meet within their silo.
+
+ o Standards for APIs to access data consistently from RIRs and
+ scoring methods were discussed as possible ways to scale trust.
+ Questions were raised as to how this might be possible. One might
+ receive unverifiable data about a network. They may be able to
+ verify the source's identity, verify route origins, but won't be
+ able to verify the provenance of data.
+
+2.4. Trust Privacy and Data Markings Panel
+
+ Why don't organizations share data? The answer seems to be a mix of
+ privacy, legal, technical/mundane, cultural, and communication
+ issues. There are also concerns about sharing proprietary data with
+ competitors. Having said that, most of these reasons were dismissed
+ as bogus by the more operationally focused participants in the
+ workshop. Lawyers need contextual education for the intersection of
+ law and technology. Sensitive data is still an issue as one can't
+ control what others do with data once it is shared.
+
+ Key points from the panel discussion:
+
+ o Operationally focused groups do retain/rate/re-mark confidence
+ levels based upon the submitter's reputation.
+
+ o The Traffic Light Protocol (TLP) [TLP] was discussed. While TLP
+ is useful to some groups who exchange data, others find that it is
+ not granular enough for their needs.
+
+ o In many cases, when data is shared, the user never knows, and
+ there is no way to manage that disclosure.
+
+ o Trust is personal. When sharing circles get too large, trust
+ breaks down. The personal relationship aspect of information
+ sharing communities was emphasized by several who are actively
+ exchanging data. This was a very prevalent theme.
+
+
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 10]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ o A point of comparison was made with consumer goods, and it was
+ observed that trademarks are a byproduct of the Industrial
+ Revolution. The question was raised: does trust need branding?
+
+ o Observing participants noted that there appear to be cabals
+ operating the groups based on the current trust notions. This was
+ not disputed.
+
+ o Transparency is vital to maintain trust.
+
+ o Participants working on automation have found a need to share with
+ organizations of all sizes as well as a need to share both
+ synchronously and asynchronously. In an automated model, they
+ must ensure data sources are "authorized" and these efforts have
+ encountered questions about anonymization as well as regional
+ regulatory perspectives as they vary.
+
+ o Another automation effort found that people have different upper
+ limits for trust group scale, which is sometimes based on
+ individualized knowledge of other participants and having a
+ comfort level with them. Social interaction (beer) is a common
+ thread amongst sharing partners to build trust relationships. The
+ relationships are formed between individuals and not necessarily
+ between organizations.
+
+ o It's rare for any single piece of information to be clearly
+ identifiable as private or public. The temptation is to say that
+ information isn't Personally Identifiable Information (PII). In
+ aggregate, however, non-PII can become PII.
+
+ o There was common agreement that reputation is fundamental.
+
+3. Workshop Themes
+
+ During the course of the day, a couple of themes recurred in the
+ discussions. Firstly, in order to better scale attack response
+ through improvements to the efficiency and effectiveness of
+ information exchanges:
+
+ 1. Exchanging data should not be just for the purpose of creating
+ blacklists that could be redundant efforts.
+
+ 2. Involving service providers and vendors to better coordinate and
+ scale response is key.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 11]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ Secondly, information security practitioners are a scarce resource:
+
+ 1. Training and education was discussed to improve this gap, both to
+ train information security professionals and others in IT on
+ basic network and system hygiene.
+
+ 2. Leveraging resources to better scale response, using fewer
+ resources is critical.
+
+4. Next Steps
+
+4.1. RIR and DNS Provider Resources
+
+ Workshop participants expressed an interest in expanded information
+ about the resources and assistance offered by the RIRs and DNS
+ providers. Participants are going to define what is needed.
+
+4.2. Education and Guidance
+
+ Another recurring theme was the lack of knowledge in the community
+ about basic security principles such as ingress and egress filtering
+ explained in BCP 38 [RFC2827]. The CSIRTs, operators, and vendors of
+ attack mitigation tools found this particularly frustrating. As a
+ result, follow up activities may include determining if security
+ guidance BCPs require updates or to determine whether there are
+ opportunities to educate people on these basic principles already
+ documented by the IETF.
+
+4.3. Transport Options
+
+ One of the more lively discussions was the need for better transports
+ for information exchange. Real-time Inter-network Defense (RID)
+ [RFC6545] was published 5 years ago. While the patterns established
+ in RID still show promise, there are updated solutions being worked
+ on. One such solution is in the IETF DOTS working group that has an
+ approach similar to RID with updated formats and protocols to meet
+ the demands of today's DDoS attacks. While Trusted Automated
+ eXchange of Indicator Information (TAXII -- another transport option)
+ is just in transition to Organization for the Advancement of
+ Structured Information Standards (OASIS), its base is similar to RID
+ in its use of SOAP-like messaging, which will likely prevent it from
+ scaling to the demands of the Internet. Vendors also cited several
+ interoperability challenges of TAXII in workshop discussions.
+ Alternatively, XMPP-Grid has been proposed in the IETF Security
+ Automation and Continuous Monitoring (SACM) working group and it
+ offers promise as the data exchange protocol for deployment at scale.
+ Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) [RFC6120]
+ inherently meets the requirements for today's information exchanges
+
+
+
+Moriarty & Ford Informational [Page 12]
+
+RFC 8073 CARIS March 2017
+
+
+ with features such as publish/subscribe, federation, and use of a
+ control channel. XMPP-Grid is gaining traction with at least 10
+ vendors using it in their products and several more planning to add
+ support [APPALA]. Review and discussion of this document would be
+ helpful as it transitions to the Managed Incident Lightweight
+ Exchange (MILE) working group as an outcome of the workshop.
+ Representational State Transfer (REST) was also brought up as a
+ needed interface because of the low barrier to use [REST]. The IETF
+ MILE Working Group has discussed a document detailing a common
+ RESTful interface (ROLIE) that could be used with any data format and
+ this may also be of interest [ROLIE].
+
+4.4. Updated Template for Information Exchange Groups
+
+ One of the submission options was for organizations actively
+ exchanging data to submit a form describing their work to reduce
+ computer security incidents. The CSIRTs, in particular, liked having
+ access to this information in a neutral location like the Internet
+ Society. However, they wanted to see amendments to the format to
+ improve its usefulness. There was a desire to have this used by
+ additional information exchange groups, thereby creating a living
+ library to improve awareness about how to become a member, benefit
+ from, or contribute to the success of the attack response and CSIRT
+ information exchange platforms.
+
+5. Security Considerations
+
+ The CARIS workshop was focused on security and methods to improve the
+ effectiveness and efficiency of attack response to enable better
+ scaling. This report provides a summary of the workshop discussions
+ and identifies some outcomes to improve security. As such, no
+ additional considerations are provided in this section.
