IPv6 Transition Mechanisms | Dual-Stack -Tunnelling – Translation

IPv6 Transition Mechanisms The only available public IP addresses are IPv6 addresses. But vast majority of the content is still working on IPv4. How IPv6 users can connect to the IPv4 world and How IPv4 users can reach to the IPv6 content ? This is accomplished with the IPv6 transition mechanisms. In this post, I […]

Survey on IXP Routing and Privacy

Marco Canini from UC Louvain is working on an IXP research project focused on bringing privacy guarantees into Internet routing context. They’re trying to understand the privacy considerations of network operators and have created a short survey to gather the initial data.

Researchers from UC Louvain have been involved in tons of really useful projects including BGP PIC, LFA, MP-TCP, Fibbing, Software-defined IXP and flow-based load balancing, so if you’re connected to an IXP, please take your time and fill in the survey.

Vault is Hashicorp’s tool to manage secrets securely in a central location. Secret could be database credentials, AWS access keys, Consul api key, ssh … Continue reading Vault Overview →

Cloudflare Certifies Under the New EU-U.S. Privacy Shield

Cloudflare has certified with the U.S. Department of Commerce for the new EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework.

Beginning this summer, the U.S. Department of Commerce began accepting submissions to certify under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework, a new mechanism by which European companies can transfer personal data to their counterparts in the United States. By certifying under Privacy Shield, Cloudflare is taking a strong and pro-active stance towards further protecting the security and privacy of our customers.

Since 1998, following the European Union’s implementation of EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC, companies in Europe wishing to transfer the personal data of Europeans overseas have had to ensure that the recipient of such data practices an adequate level of protection when handling this information. Until last October, American companies were able to certify under the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Accord, which provided a legal means to accept European personal data, in exchange for assurances of privacy commitments and the enactment of specific internal controls.

However, after having been in effect for roughly fifteen years, in October 2015 the European Court of Justice overturned the Safe Harbor and declared that a new mechanism for transatlantic data transfers would need Continue reading

BGP Peering – Private, Public, Bilateral and Multilateral Peering

BGP Peering BGP Peering is an agreement between different Service Providers. It is an EBGP neighborship between different Service Providers to send BGP traffic between them without paying upstream Service Provider.   To understand BGP peering, first we must understand how networks are connected to each other on the Internet. The Internet is a collection […]

How to wrangle meaning from Internet of Things data

This vendor-written tech primer has been edited by Network World to eliminate product promotion, but readers should note it will likely favor the submitter’s approach.

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to produce troves of valuable, fast moving, real-time data, offering insights that can change the way we engage with everyday objects and technologies, amplify our business acumen, and improve the efficiencies of the machines, large and small, wearable and walkable, that run our world.

But without careful, holistic forethought about how to manage a variety of data sources and types, businesses will not only miss out on critical insights, but fall behind the status quo. Here’s how to get prepared to wrangle and extract meaning from all of the data that’s headed your way:

We don’t need more InfoSec analysts: We need analysts to train AI infrastructures to detect attacks

This vendor-written tech primer has been edited by Network World to eliminate product promotion, but readers should note it will likely favor the submitter’s approach.Everyone says there is an information security talent gap. In fact, some sources say the demand for security professionals exceeds the supply by a million jobs. Their argument is basically this: attacks are not being detected quickly or often enough, and the tools are generating more alerts than can be investigated, so we need more people to investigate those alarms.Makes sense, right?Wrong.We believe that, even if companies aroaund the world miraculously hired a million qualified InfoSec professionals tomorrow there would be no change in detection effectiveness and we would still have a “talent gap.” The problem isn’t a people issue so much as it is an InfoSec infrastructure issue.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

By 2020, your Wi-Fi-connected car will pay for parking, gas

Wi-Fi communications in vehicles, whether from the factory or in aftermarket devices, will increase from 6.9 million per year in 2015 to 61 million per year in 2020 -- and this will usher in a new era of consumer services and applications, according to a new report from Gartner.Over the next four years, the total number of connected cars and trucks will reach 220 million, a number that will drive a huge uptick in the delivery of digital content, such as streaming music and video, navigation and location-based services.Connected vehicles increasingly will be able to direct drivers to, and pay for, parking spaces, fuel and other services, and the technology will eventually enable increased levels of automated driving, Gartner's report stated.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Traffic Control: Live Demo

CC BY 2.0 image by Brian Hefele

Cloudflare helps customers control their own traffic at the edge. One of two products that we introduced to empower customers to do so is Cloudflare Traffic Control.

Traffic Control allows a customer to rate limit, shape or block traffic based on the rate of requests per client IP address, cookie, authentication token, or other attributes of the request. Traffic can be controlled on a per-URI (with wildcards for greater flexibility) basis giving pinpoint control over a website, application, or API.

Cloudflare has been dogfooding Traffic Control to add more granular controls against Layer 7 DOS and brute-force attacks. For example, we've experienced attacks on cloudflare.com from more than 4,000 IP addresses sending 600,000+ requests in 5 minutes to the same URL but with random parameters. These types of attacks send large volumes of HTTP requests intended to bring down our site or to crack login passwords.

Traffic Control protects websites and APIs from similar types of bad traffic. By leveraging our massive network, we are able to process and enforce rate limiting near the client, shielding the customer's application from unnecessary load.

To make this more concrete, let's look at a Continue reading

Worth Reading: What is segment routing?

Do you remember source routing, used in token ring bridging networks? If you’re relatively new to networking, you may not know about it. In source routing, the hosts determine the path to take through the network and build a frame header that specifies the forwarding nodes that the frame should pass through as it goes from source to destination. The token ring implementation typically used special frames called explorer packets to discover the set of paths from source to destination. Too many explorer packets could cause overloading problems with the network nodes (source route bridges) and with the hosts that had to process them, much like a broadcast storm in Ethernet networks. —Netcraftsmen

Android malware that can infiltrate corporate networks is spreading

An Android malware is spreading across app stores, including Google Play, and has the capability of stealing sensitive files from corporate networks.DressCode, a family of Android malware, has been found circulating in at least 3,000 Trojanized apps, security firm Trend Micro said on Friday.DressCode hides itself inside games, user interface themes, and phone optimization boosters. It can also be difficult to detect because the malicious coding only makes up a small portion of the overall app.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
