Protecting the Integrity of Internet Routing: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Route Origin Validation: NIST SP 1800-14A, B & C

FINAL - Includes Executive Summary (A); Approach, Architecture, and Security Characteristics (B); and How-To Guides (C)
Most of the routing infrastructure underpinning theinternetcurrentlylacksbasic security services. In most cases,internettraffic must transit multiple networks before reaching its destination. Each network implicitly trusts other networks to provide (via BGP) the accurate information necessaryto correctly route traffic across the internet. When that information is inaccurate, traffic will take inefficient paths through theinternet, arrive at malicious sites that masquerade as legitimate destinations, or never arrive at its intended destination. These impacts can be mitigated through a widespread adoption ofBGP ROV.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don’t have to.

First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it’s the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it’s just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it’s 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.

It’s much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com
