I'll suggest that 'privacy' divides into at least three important 
distinctions:


   1.  Identification of PII among a set of data ii ie, define an
   attribute set

   2.  Ability to handle PII differentially

   3.  Policies for deciding when/how to divulge PII and to whom

The first two are technical details that seem to make sense for this 
group.  The last does not.


The essential benefit of excluding the third item, is that it then means 
the group does not need legal expertise (except to make sure that the 
mechanical listing of attributes considered PII is sufficient -- but I'm 
guessing that's far easier than the when/how/who disclosure behavior

IANAL, but that’s my understanding as well. If it would be helpful, I can get a 
formal legal opinion and a statement from the UK Information Commissioner’s

I'm probably missing something, but -- aren't email addresses usually classed 
as PII in the EU, whether they're sending or receiving at the moment? Seems to 
me it would run afoul of the privacy regs that tend to rule out forensic 
reports in certain jurisdictions...

Well, given the upcoming GDPR legislation and the sanctions that comes 
with it [1], maybe an agenda item 'DMARC reports and privacy' would be a 
good point. Ideally we would like to have someone present with both GDPR 
and DMARC knowledge...

Not all 25 minutes are for that; that is included in the time slot,
along with anything else we put into "next steps".

(And I'm expecting that we'll wind up with more than 25 minutes, in the end.)

We can certainly discuss whether we should consider the
virtual-verification proposal at all; please do that on that thread.
Very much, please do.

I do expect that we'll discuss "path toward a Proposed Standard
version of DMARC," and I'll put that into the "next steps" section on
the next update to the agenda.

That's quite a long time to discuss something that isn't really dmarc.

DMARC introduces the alignment construct, publication of a policy 
record, and a reporting mechanism.


The proposal is to take note of alignment, independent of whether the 
domain owner has published a policy about it.  Having a report take note 
of validated alignment well might be worth doing, but it's not DMARC.


My impression is that after ARC, the industry interest is in finding a 
path that standardizes DMARC.  This proposal does not serve that goal.

Re: [dmarc-ietf] Agenda for IETF 101 DMARC session

2018-03-12 Thread Kurt Andersen (b)
Seems like we might want to discuss specific steps toward the next
milestone per our charter. I think that ARC is a method of "support[ing]
indirect mail flows" but we haven't even discussed the other brainstorm
ideas that were tossed into the charter (listed below). Are all of these
items necessary to get DMARC put onto a standards track or were they just
ideas floated at the time DMARC-WG was chartered so that we'd have some
things to discuss?

--Kurt

(part of 2) Improvements in DMARC features (identifier alignment,
reporting, policy preferences) will be considered, such as:

- Enumeration of data elements required in "Failure" reports (specifically
to address privacy issues)
- Handling potential reporting abuse
- Aggregate reporting to support additional reporting scenarios
- Alternate reporting channels
- Utility of arbitrary identifier alignment
- Utility of a formalized policy exception mechanism

3. DMARC Usage

The working group will document operational practices in terms of
configuration, installation, monitoring, diagnosis and reporting. It will
catalog currently prevailing guidelines as well as developing advice on
practices that are not yet well-established but which are believed to be
appropriate.

The group will consider separating configuration and other deployment
information that needs to be in the base spec, from information that should
be in a separate guide.
and the corresponding work items:

Phase II:

- Specification of DMARC improvements to support indirect mail flows

- Draft Guide on DMARC Usage

Phase III:

- Review and refinement of the DMARC specification

- Completion of Guide on DMARC Usage
