The Security Policy Working Group (SPWG) is chartered to create a proposed
Internet Security Policy for review, possible modification, and
possible adoption by the Internet Activities Board. The SPWG will
focus on both technical and administrative issues related to security,
including integrity, authentication and confidentiality controls, and
the administration of hosts and networks.

Among the issues to be considered in this Working Group are:

\begin{itemize}

\item
Responsibilities and obligations of users, database
administrators, host operators, and network managers.

\item
Technical controls which provide protection from disruption of
service, unauthorized modification of data, unauthorized disclosure
of information and unauthorized use of facilities.

\item
Organizational requirements for host, local network, regional
network and backbone network operators.

\item
Incident handling procedures for various Internet components.

\end{itemize}
