auDA wants to improve police internet literacy Featured
Australian domain administrator auDA wants to educate law enforcers on how the internet works to improve their literacy and train them so they can be prepared to respond to cybercrime.
In a parliamentary submission, the administrator wrote that "with the exception of small number of specialist areas with the Australian Federal Police (AFP)," there does not "appear to be a deep understanding within law enforcement bodies," as to the internet ecosystem.
With minimal understanding of how the internet works, this extends to a lack of awareness about the roles and responsibilities of the various actors in the "ecosystem, including telcos, ISPs, web hosting companies, email service providers, cloud computing operators, domain name system (DNS) operators, registrars, and web developers."
The administrator also stressed "there is also a low level of understanding about the different Top-Level Domains (TLDs)."
It was quick to point out "it can assist with inquiries related solely to domain names ending in .au.," but not responsible "for the administration of other TOLDs and is unable to respond inquiries related to them."
auDA suggests a targeted training on the internet ecosystem would enhance the detection and investigation of a cybercrime with requests for assistance are directed to the proper government body or agency involved.
The auDA reminded the government to carefully review international rules around turning over domain registration information to foreign police and investigators.
The second additional protocol to the Budapest Convention on Cybercrime would allow such requests, and giving foreign parties a "domain registration data to entities in another party's jurisdiction."
auDA said it redirects any requests for information from foreign law enforcement officers to its public. au whois tool.
"Any requests for information outside this scope will be directed to the AFP," it said.
"We take this opportunity to recommend that should Australia accede to the additional protocol, any requests from a foreign authority for non-public .au domain registration information should come via an appropriate Australian authority, such as the AFP."
