RPKI / BGP security

Also known as: RPKI · ROA · BGPsec

Routing PKI binding prefixes to ASNs—integrity of internet routes, classical signatures today.

Definition

RPKI issues signed ROAs so networks can validate BGP route origins. It is about routing authenticity, not encrypting user traffic.

Trust anchors and ROA signatures are classical PKI; operators should track long-term algorithm migration in routing security programs.
