IP hijacking - is ROA the answer ?

$
0
0

as a follow-up to the ipsystems topic

this story has been about for a while. it's a poor state that ARIN, peers, and others with influence and control over routing, didn't jump on this earlier.

ipsystems aren't the only one with reports of IP hijacking. these days with plenty of methods of authentication, encryption, and validation, why is it even possible to hijack IP blocks ?

A question for all those there who manage their own ASN, and don't use ROA. Is there a technical problem with ROA ? Is it because it's optional? what's the answer to preventing ANY hijacking ?

ARIN info on ROA

A ROA is a cryptographically signed object that states which Autonomous System (AS) is authorized to originate a particular prefix or set of prefixes

do peers ignore it and peer without a valid ROA ?

Is it worthing paying for a "premium" DNS service?

$
0

Can anyone tell me if it's worth paying for a premium DNS hosting for a website where speed and uptime are critical, with a primarily US-based audience?

I have a website that currently uses Namecheap's free DNS servers, and I'm wondering if paying for something like ClouDNS would be worthwhile. This is unfortunately an area where I have little knowledge.

I also considered hosting my own DNS servers, but it seems like more trouble than it's worth.

Softether on NAT VPS and OS X clients

Hi,

I've setup Softether on a Lowendspirit VPS to test. Since this is NAT only I can't use default ports for my VPN. I would need to specify the port when connecting but the default OSX IPSEC VPN options doesn't allow me to do so.

Which utility's allow for custom port specification or should I just ditch IPSEC and go OpenVPN and use Viscosity or Tunnelblick?

Any idea's?

Thanks,

Meet Alphabet - Google's new parent company

$
0
0

Our company is operating well today, but we think we can make it cleaner and more accountable. So we are creating a new company, called Alphabet (http://abc.xyz). I am really excited to be running Alphabet as CEO with help from my capable partner, Sergey, as President.

What is Alphabet? Alphabet is mostly a collection of companies. The largest of which, of course, is Google. This newer Google is a bit slimmed down, with the companies that are pretty far afield of our main Internet products contained in Alphabet instead. What do we mean by far afield? Good examples are our health efforts: Life Sciences (that works on the glucose-sensing contact lens), and Calico (focused on longevity). Fundamentally, we believe this allows us more management scale, as we can run things independently that aren’t very related. Alphabet is about businesses prospering through strong leaders and independence.

Sick of spam

I'm totally sick of spam e-mail and the way i see it is i have three options, which are:

  1. setup ASSP or some other spam filtering proxy to filter the mail and pass it to my current host or

  2. Take charge of my e-mail and setup a full mail server (probably using something like mail in a box)

  3. pass it to someone who only does e-mail (and has decent spam filtering)

what would you do? why? and any recommendations greatly received.

thanks

Who really prefers BitCoin?

LET seem to have a lot of members actually prefer BTC. Im curios, who and why would BTC be preferable?

For sellers/service providers, the non-reversible nature of BTC is obviously attractive but does anyone actually hold BTC or do most simply convert for 'real' money straight away?

What about buyer's reasons? Curious to know!
