Randy is quite right. The attacks reported in the news article were against the private optical fibers linking the geographically distributed data centers of large companies like Google or Yahoo. A discussion about that should start with the folks in charge of securing these data centers at Google, Yahoo, Facebook, Microsoft, et cetera. I can see some difficulties, because a fair bit of the data centers architectures is probably treated as trade secret. And I am really not sure that the IETF is the best place to conduct such discussions. -- Christian Huitema _______________________________________________ perpass mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/perpass
