What the agency says

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks to increase the security of the information routed across the internet by proposing certain reporting obligations on providers of broadband internet access service (BIAS providers) and their use of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). Internet traffic can be disrupted, intercepted, and blackholed--when a service provider drops traffic addressed to a targeted IP address or range of addresses by redirecting it to a null route--due to either accidental or deliberate adversarial manipulation of security vulnerabilities inherent to BGP. Together, the intended effect of the plans, filings, and measures the Commission proposes would be to mitigate such threats. BIAS providers would be required to develop BGP Routing Security Risk Management Plans that describe their plans for and progress in implementing security measures that utilize the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI). Nine of the largest service providers would be required to file specific additional data on a quarterly basis. The FCC also seeks comment on issues related to implementing RPKI-based security measures.
