Steve -
We’ve heard some organizations express concern over the fact that they were originally
listed on network record, and through no action of their own, are no longer visible in a
similar manner now that there are organization and network records. It’s not a question
of whether they can vet their organization, but simply a question of the appearance.

Evidence that the party is a valid representative to the organization that was issued
the number resources, or its legal successor.

Acknowledged.
> I do agree that putting resource POCs back in where there is reasonable suspicion that the POC is invalid/hijacked should trigger a lock.
Understood – the challenge with such an approach would be algorithmically determining
the factors that constitute “reasonable suspicion” in a deterministic/equitable manner, and
yet cannot be easily bypassed by those who wish to hijack resources.
Presently, all of these resources are effectively locked, i.e. parties asserting control must go
through Org recovery to have their POC associated with the organization. We not proposing
any change to this process - we are only making the organization record have more useful
information than just showing "CKN-23".
> I am having issue with POCs who are still at the same ORG with the same contact information being locked, which would be a small subset I believe. Said POCs would not have done anything wrong and their requests should be honored with minimal interference.
> Possibly this is what ARIN is planning to do, i.e. an old record with an old POC gets updated, triggers abuse who then can easily vet that the POC is valid. Where as an old record with a new POC would require more intensive vetting.
The proposed registry change doesn’t make any more parties subject to vetting, nor
any less – it is, as noted above, whether we retain CKN-23 in these organization
records or the previous values from the underlying historic network records.
Thank you for the excellent feedback!
