Time to prepare for IPv6

I have been updating some of my IPv6 presentations (I will be presenting at InterOp in Las Vegas in April and in May at Microsoft TechEd in Houston and at Cisco Live in San Francisco) and while doing some research as a part of that process and I've come to the conclusion that 2014 will be a turning point for IPv6 planning and deployment and 2015 will become a massive growth year for adoption. There are several things that point to this.

First, content companies like Akamai are seeing rapid and accelerating growth of IPv6 hosts accessing content on their very large global networks. To quote Erik Nygren, Chief Architect for Akamai, " No longer is IPv6 adoption "just around the corner." It's here." You can see more of his thoughts in this Network Computing article. The driving factors in North America are the US carriers who are now deploying IPv6 for residential subscribers along with the mobile providers doing the same.

The Internet Associates IPal story

Christmastime 2001, three wise guys gathered at the Bahama Breeze in Atlanta to discuss forming a partnership to solve the IP address management via spreadsheet nightmare. John Lee, Dennis Boylan, and I all had long tenures in network management. In the mid-nineties one of my primary responsibilities was managing the International MAEs East and West as the Director of Operations at MFS DataNet. Attempting to manage multiple ASNs on multiple spreadsheets was overwhelming.

Improved Security Through DNS Inspection (Part 2)

In the previous blog post on DNS traffic inspection we covered how attackers target DNS systems.  Attackers use Fast-Flux DNS techniques to rapidly change the server's hosting malware.  Attackers control malware to change the DNS behavior on the end-user’s computer or server.  In this blog we are going to discuss the various techniques at your disposal to help gain visibility to these types of attacks.  We also cover techniques for stopping these security incidents right from the start of infection.
