A few months ago we shared the outcomes that are guiding the work that we are doing as part of the NRO RPKI Program. We mentioned that we would like to know more about the community’s expectations with regard to consistency in RPKI implementation across the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) with the end goal of defining what a single, global RPKI system would look like.

RFC 9518: Centralization, Decentralization, and Internet Standards has been published after more than two years of review, discussion, and revision. It covers what centralization is, how it can be both beneficial and harmful, the decentralization strategies we typically use to control it, and finally, what Internet standards bodies can do about it. It’s no secret that most people have been increasingly concerned about Internet centralization over the last decade.

We have now broken down that purpose into more specific outcomes to guide our efforts.

Firstly, we want to gain a better understanding of what a single, global RPKI system would look like. We would like to know more about the expectations from the community in terms of consistency across the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) in their RPKI implementations.

With new and emerging technologies, cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated and are increasing. Information about cyber threats, also known as threat intelligence, is a significant defence component, as it contains context, indicators of compromise (IoCs), implications and advised actions regarding identified and emerging possible threats. However, the application of threat intelligence requires that good-quality data be shared by organisations and states.

Introduction Welcome back to our journey into the realm of Internet routing security! In our previous article, "Securing Internet Routing with Cryptography: Quick Introduction to RPKI," we delved into the foundational concepts of Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI), its role in securing the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and real-world examples showcasing the need for robust routing security measures.

Experimental IPv6-only network at APRICOT 2024 APRICOT is the Internet Network Operators Summit for the Asia Pacific region. Every year, a conference wireless network is built to provide connectivity for hundreds of delegates, with a separate "IPv6-only" SSID as an alternative for people to try. This year, we decided to experiment with a new approach, by using some of the recent mechanisms designed for "IPv6-mostly" networks to build a better "IPv6-only" network. What's IPv6-mostly?
