[governance] Security Test Prompts Federal Fraud Alert

[Jeffrey A. Williams]

All,

  Seems that there are some governance issues regarding security problems
with a number of online credit card payment systems.  

  In 2002 I amongst others warned ICANN regarding the registration of domain
names being forced to credit card required registration of domain names.  This
problem has been noticed and been a cause of some than existing registrars to
be dis-accredited by ICANN after the fact.  As such one has to wonder if and how,
as well as how well ICANN is able to do proper due diligance of security procedures
as required in the US and other nations in respect to PCI.
