White House brands BGP routing a ‘national security concern’ as it unveils reform roadmap

Network World

The TLDR of the Roadmap to Enhancing Internet Routing Security is that the ONCD wants federal agencies and network operators to hurry up and implement a public key cryptography scheme, Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI). These enforce an authentication check that a network has the right to advertise a route before receiving packets.

BGP: What is border gateway protocol, and how does it work?

Network World

In the latter case, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the routing protocol used by the global internet, is used to find the best path by weighing the latest network conditions based on reachability and routing information. Each AS creates rules and policies for how traffic moves within its network.

Fix for BGP routing insecurity ‘plagued by software vulnerabilities’ of its own, researchers find

Network World

Attack surface The underlying problem with the BGP protocol upon which internet routing today depends is that it was designed without what the authors describe as “cryptographic authentication of announcements.” Under BGP, there is no way to authenticate routing changes.

Where Web 3.0 is taking the software industry

CIO Business Intelligence

This is how the network pays for itself. Fees relate to the scalability of the network: as the demand for compute increases, its price goes up. In short, the trilemma is to make a blockchain network that harmonizes the three ideals of decentralization, scalability, and security. Blockchain trilemma.

Generative adversarial networks (GANs)

Dataconomy

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have revolutionized the field of machine learning by introducing a unique framework where two neural networks, known as the generator and the discriminator, engage in a continuous game against each other. What are generative adversarial networks (GANs)?
