Where Does the RIPE NCC Stand?
22
Our ultimate priority
is keeping the
registry up-to-date!
NLNOG - October 2014
Increased Risk for Hijacks
23
• IPv4 addresses are becoming more valuable
•
Criminals will try any methods to obtain control over
address blocks:
• Faking registration and identity papers
• Forged stamps and signatures
• Faking entire websites and domains
•
RIPE NCC has to do more thorough checks:
•
•
Extra time to process requests
Please cooperate in supplying the required documents
