Topic
RPKI and Route Security
Within the Topic facet, RPKI and Route Security topic intelligence connects articles that share a specific subject, signal focus, or monitoring theme. The page gives readers a richer path through related reporting, source evidence, market actors, and infrastructure implications, with enough context to understand why the topic matters across company movements, governance decisions, regional exposure, and operational risk. Readers can compare recurring signals, affected organisations, public evidence, market context, service continuity, procurement, competition, compliance, and strategic planning questions behind the subject instead of stopping at a thin list of matching articles. It explains what the topic covers, which infrastructure actors or policies are involved, what evidence supports the coverage, and why the subject may matter for operators, customers, investors, and policy readers.

One Git Push from Bucharest: Anverino Software and the Hard Economics of LuaDNS
LuaDNS turns authoritative DNS into something a small engineering team can review, script and deploy like software, but its unusually open control surface also exposes the central procurement question around a lean infrastructure operator: whether verifiable routing, disciplined…

Randy Bush and the Operational Case for Routing Security
The internet's shared routing and naming systems work only when thousands of independent operators can place limited, testable trust in one another. Randy Bush's career offers a way to examine how that trust is built: not by assuming protocols or institutions are infallible, but…

Carlos Martinez-Cagnazzo and the Boundary Work of Routing Security
Carlos Martinez-Cagnazzo's public record does not describe a lone architect making the internet safe. It shows a more instructive kind of authority: a regional registry strategist working where cryptographic standards, trust-anchor operations, operator education and cross-border…

NICHONET's five-prefix IPv6 footprint does not add up to a documented hosting fleet
NICHONET is a real routed network, but the strongest public evidence describes a one-person, tunnel-based IPv6 experiment rather than the intercontinental hosting operator suggested by its name. Its five visible IPv6 origins and four exchange records prove useful engineering…

Niels Raijer and the Quiet Work of Hardening BGP
Sofia Ren profiles Niels Raijer through the route-server and BGP security work that shows how small operator communities can strengthen the routing layer through shared tooling, open standards, and institutional trust, without waiting for the biggest platforms to define the…

Quantum Migration and the Governance of Registry Keys
The prospect of cryptographically relevant quantum computing creates a real planning problem for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure. RPKI relies on digital signatures to bind a public key to Internet number resources and to validate signed routing entities. Its deployed…

Sanctions Fragmentation and the Case for Service-Layer Separation
Sanctions are written against people, companies, governments, sectors, transactions and forms of support. Internet number-resource institutions, by contrast, operate shared systems whose effects travel far beyond one contract. When a bank rejects a payment, a registry cannot…

RPKI Adoption as a Transfer of Institutional Risk
Route origin security has crossed an important threshold. Resource Public Key Infrastructure is no longer best understood as an optional experiment used by a narrow technical community. More address space is covered by Route Origin Authorizations, more networks validate the…

Resolution Planning for an Internet Registry
An Internet registry can keep its servers available while its institution fails. Directors can lose lawful authority, a court can restrain payments, a dispute can block appointments, a critical contractor can terminate service, a key custodian can become unavailable, or creditors…

DNSSEC Key Rollover and the Governance of Irreversible Mistakes
A cryptographic key can be generated again. Trust cannot always be recalled. Once a new trust anchor has reached resolvers, an old key has been revoked, cached records have diverged or dependent operators have acted on a signed state, the administrator is no longer editing one…

Operator Rights Outside the Multistakeholder Theatre
Internet governance meetings are good at showing who can speak. They are much less reliable at showing what an absent operator can demand on an ordinary Tuesday when a registration is disputed, a service term changes, an RPKI dependency fails or a provider becomes unstable. A…

WSIS+20 and the Operational Layer Left Outside the Room
The WSIS+20 review brought governments and other stakeholders into a high-level United Nations process to assess two decades of the information society. It reaffirmed a global, multistakeholder Internet, made the Internet Governance Forum permanent and set new follow-up work. It…

A Permanent IGF Is Still a Forum
On 17 December 2025, the United Nations General Assembly decided that the Internet Governance Forum should become a permanent forum of the United Nations. The decision ended a cycle in which the IGF periodically had to secure another extension. It also called for stable staffing…

Jorge Cano and the Registry Work That Makes Names Resolve
Jorge Cano Puente’s public record is not the familiar profile of a telecom executive, founder, or regulator. It is the quieter profile of a registry systems engineer whose work sits inside the machinery that lets domains be registered, authenticated, queried, delegated, and…

Security Area Urgency and the Sunset Problem
Security standards often have to move before the evidence is complete. A newly practical attack, a compromised primitive, or a change in adversary capability can make delay more dangerous than an imperfect first response. That urgency is legitimate. It is not a reason to let the…
