RPKI has made real progress against prefix hijacking. But when you map every known class of BGP attack against the defences that exist, four of them turn out to sit entirely outside cryptographic validation: handled with local filters, static thresholds and reactive response.

Who runs the hidden infrastructure behind secure Internet routing? An internship report from SIDN Labs looks beyond the RIRs at the independently operated RPKI publication servers helping to secure BGP.

On 3-4 June 2026, we convened in Riga, Latvia for RIPE NCC Days Baltics. 76 participants from nine countries participated in sessions covering important topics in network operations, with a special focus on resilience for a region that has seen repeated network disruptions in recent years.

ASPA objects can be registered today with ARIN and RIPE NCC. Validators support RTR v2. But if you're an operator, can you actually see what ASPA is doing - or would do - on your network? We built a tool to find out.
