IPinfo reports that RPKI, a cryptographic system for validating who is allowed to announce IP address routes, now protects around 70% of internet routes. The milestone marks steady progress in defending against route hijacks and misconfigurations like the ones that have diverted traffic to black holes or hostile networks. Commenters are discussing how far adoption has come and what remains before full coverage.
Why now: It is a significant security milestone for internet routing infrastructure, a topic of ongoing concern after repeated BGP hijacking incidents.
