In case you missed the memo, Howard Schmidt acting chairman of the
President's Cybersecurity Board announced the National
Communications System is the place you are supposed to report
Internet infrastructure incidents.

"Many incidents can be handled by the private sector, but there is current
discussion about how to better define expectations on the government side
and to institutionalize what type of incidents will be automatically
reported to the government, Schmidt said."
"One step officials already have made is to establish the National
Communications System (NCS) as the key contact point for industry
representatives when reporting Internet infrastructure incidents, he
said."
