Border Gateway Protocol: the Good, Bad, and Ugly of Internet Routing

  Jim Cowie
Chief Scientist
Dyn <http://research.dyn.com>
 *About the talk: *

Internet routing relies on good faith and trust among network operators to
maintain a clean, correct global routing table. If network operators inject
false routes, and persuade their peers and transit providers to propagate
them, the results can range from simple denial of service to subtle traffic
redirection. This talk will provide a technical overview of the weaknesses
of the Border Gateway Protocol, review some examples of BGP route hijacking
and misconfiguration in the wild, and suggest appropriate detection and
response strategies for the network operations and research community to
study.

*Slides: *

There is no downloadable version of the slides for this talk available at
