We are currently revising this based upon initial comments, but would welcome additional input.  That is, is this guidance useful?  How could it be made more useful?

Subject: Re: [Security-WG] [External] Re: ARIN, RPKI, and legal barriers....

 

On today's Quilt CIS call, we discussed adding RPKI and ROA validation to The Quilt 2020 CIS RFP process.  There was strong support for this and I volunteered to ensure it happens as part of the RFP process which will begin later this fall. In thinking about it we should also add MANRS and IRR questions as well.  We did ask about RPKI in the last Quilt CIS RFP. Are there other security related questions that should be asked?

 

If anyone has suggested language, please send it my way.  

 

Additionally, we always welcome volunteers from the community to participate in the Quilt CIS project in general and specifically during the RFP process. If the process goes as it typically has, we will be finishing up evaluating RFP responses about a year from now.

 

If you are interested please contact;

 

Sharon Akkoul - Chair, The Quilt CIS Project, or

Jen Leasure  - President, The Quilt

 

Thanks.

I suggest we de-couple the issues, and here’s why:

 

Having more networks with ROAs makes using the RPKI database more valuable, hence more incentive to overcome its access barriers. It would only take a handful backbone providers using ARIN’s database to have a huge impact on hijacking risk.

 

Another incentive the community may wish to consider is asking their internet transit providers agree to use their ROA records. Perhaps The Quilt might consider adding such language to the purchasing program?

Thanks for your update.

 

However, same chicken and egg situation with RPA and RPKI adoption and ARIN not budging.

Thanks for the clarification. I should have said “current RSA”. Last time we requested a new resource, I think it was an additional AS, they required signing of the most current RSA. They were willing to accept changes required due to Indiana law.
