StopBadware: Best Practices for Web Hosting Providers: Responding to Malware Reports
“These best practices are designed to provide a best-of-breed framework that web hosting providers can use to respond to malware reports. They are designed to prescribe an overall strategy for receiving and processing the reports, rather than to specify highly specific tactics for providers to employ. They are tailored, as much as possible, to avoid burdening providers unnecessarily while still emphasizing the special responsibility inherent in hosting providers’ unique position in the architecture of the Web. Responsible hosting providers of every size, type, and capability can — and should — strive to meet these guidelines.”
