[gnso-ff-pdp-may08] Introduction & Statement of Interest: Martin Hall, Karmasphere

[Martin Hall <martinh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone and thank you for including me in this working group.

Here is my statement of interest:

I am co-founder and CEO of Karmasphere, a start-up focused on  
improving decisions about who to interact with online by providing  
more insight into the identities involved. We've built a platform and  
set of network analytics technologies that aggregate numerous data  
sources, subject them to a range of mining and forensics processes and  
which enable us to apply the resulting intelligence to a variety of  
online decision contexts.
One of the components we built is a fast flux detector. It consumes  
various data inputs and uses configurable heuristics to determine if a  
domain is fluxing, monitoring it from that point forward. The output  
of this system is a rich seam of data about fluxing domains, their  
attributes and connections between them.
We are interested in collaborating with other organizations to cure  
and prevent the use of fast flux networks for malicious  activities. I  
look forward to figuring out how we can best help the work of this  
group.
regards,
Martin
