Hi,
If you mean "TCP", by TCP/IP, then this is the standard defined by RFC 793.
AFAIK there have been no updates to the standard itself AFAIK, only in
implementations.
If you mean "IP", the underlying transport mechanism (RFC 791), the same
situation as above applies.
Extensions have been made, but I think the question you're asking has
more to do with changes in communication protocols for various services
that are generally run over IP based networks.
To answer this question, have a look at e.g.
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc-index.html, and look at older RFC's that
have been obsoleted. Check the updates and you should be able to determine
from there what extensions/changes have been made for security reasons.
Hope this helps.
Take care,
Andrew
