    I believe SANs formed giac (global incident analysis center) for just this
    purpose.
    Try http://www.sans.org/giac.htm

    Subject: Hackers left open door to my server..
    
    
    Someone tried to get into one of our boxes here and left a door (rcp) to one
    of their hacked servers.  They also left quite a few files on the server,
    large list of servers, IP addresses, usernames and root passwords + their
    toolbox of toy scripts. Our system did not let them delete these files, but
    they thought they had.  I also have the console log with them chatting to
    each other & the commands they issued.
    
    Is there any one place to report this type of violation or should I just
    clam up and clean up the box?  The connection (rcp) is still up (not for
    long I suspect tho), I would like to catch these buggers.....
    
    Thanks
