I have a lot of respect for what REN-ISAC does but it doesn't nearly have the sort of coverage this project appears to be looking at.
The important point is that it's hardly a new and revolutionary idea...
Sure. Is there any point in reinventing a wheel? Multiple different silo'd communities have ever been useful - and also the biggest stumbling block for coordination. Clearinghouses at a national level aren't particularly new either - the aussie telecom regulator ACMA set one up for spam / security reports with various local service providers and its been doing just fine for the past few years. At a basic level, aggregating + anonymizing feeds from various data sources and sending alerts to SPs.. and cooperation only builds upwards from there. -- Suresh Ramasubramanian (ops.lists@gmail.com)
