"White House Addresses BGP Vulnerabilities in New Internet Routing Security Roadmap"
The White House has released a roadmap to address Internet routing security issues, specifically Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) vulnerabilities. The BGP protocol is used in the exchange of routing information between Autonomous Systems (AS) on the Internet, but this critical component was not designed with security in mind. Potentially serious vulnerabilities have been discovered in the past years that can allow threat actors to redirect internet traffic. They can lead to disruptions to critical infrastructure, the theft of sensitive information, and more. This article continues to discuss the White House's plan for addressing BGP security issues.
