Hi @netfl0 - yes please. [Andrew Papastefanou, Talanos Cybersecurity]
@ryantxu1 . In relation to the takedown requests, I have bundled it under a main technique called "Attacker Infra Eviction". So it would be "Evict" > "Attacker Infra Eviction" > "Takedown Request".
I have sent a table of suggestions to @netfl0 on some of the other sub-techniques that could be listed here (such as "Rogue Device Removal"). So perhaps it is worth considering this entry in relation to that?
Hey @apapaa, would your proposed "Takedown Request" be a broader scope than "Takedown Domain Registration"? I'm definitely interested in hearing about your ideas on other techniques for "Attacker Infra Eviction". We're putting together a major addition to the Evict section here https://github.com/d3fend/d3fend-ontology/pull/240. I think it might make sense to bundle this in there.

Definition
The process of performing a takedown of the attacker's infrastructure, specifically domain registration.
How it works
Most nameserver hosts and domain name registrars comply with internationally recognised standards and supply their services based on terms and conditions that provide users and organisations protection from abuse and trademark infringement. Performing a WHOIS query on the attacker's domain will provide a contact that can be notified in the case of abuse. Formal takedown processes should be initiated to suspend or disable the normal function of the domain name.
Considerations
Examples of Domain Registration Abuse
Attackers will create infrastructure from which to carry out their operations and this may include registering domain names to be used in the various attacks. Known misuse cases include:
