auDA webinar: Ignite your curiosity ahead of IETF 119

With an overriding mission of making the internet work better, the IETF is the premier standards development organisation (SDO) for the internet. The IETF makes voluntary technical standards for internet users, network operators and equipment vendors, and thus helps shape the trajectory of the internet’s evolution.

This Week In Security: WebP, Cavium, Gitlab, And Asahi Lina

... There’s more in the paper, like confirmation of project BULLRUN, the effort to sabatoge security in IETF protocols, or the bulk collection of high-entropy Internet traffic for eventual decryption. It was also interesting to learn that the NSA has apparently compromised the Russian SORM Lawful Interception program. Or to put it another way, the NSA can spy on Russian citizens just like Russia can.

How 5GNC will pave the way for a revamp of communications services 

The rollout of 5G and a related set of communication capabilities, known as 5G New Calling (5GNC), could open up new revenue streams for mobile operators writes Henry Calvert, head of networks at the GSMA. ... Moving forward, 5GNC will greatly expand operators’ capabilities by harnessing the IMS data channel, which is being developed in a number of international consortia, including 3GPP, the GSMA, W3C, and IETF. When 5GNC is enriched by the IMS data channel, operators will gain access to JavaScript developers’ wealth of experience in web technology, creating a new ecosystem.

¿Qué es el Secure Socket Layer (SSL) y cómo te mantiene seguro en Internet? [What is Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and how does it keep you safe online?]

... El SSL es el predecesor directo de otro protocolo conocido como TLS (Transport Layer Security). El Grupo de trabajo de ingeniería de Internet (IETF, por sus siglas en inglés) propuso en 1999 una actualización del SSL. Como esta actualización la estaba desarrollando el IETF, y Netscape ya no participaba en el proyecto, se cambió el nombre a TLS. No hay diferencias drásticas entre la versión final de SSL (3.0) y la primera versión de TLS; el nombre simplemente se cambió para indicar el cambio de propietario.

What’s the Internet Like Today?

... Considering society’s reliance on reliable, secure, and increasingly fast Internet connectivity, measuring the Internet is similarly important and challenging as predicting the weather and measuring the climate. It’s why we established Internet Society Pulse, which in many ways works like your weather app to provide a snapshot of the health, availability, and evolution of the Internet.

How TCP's congestion control saved the internet

With the annual SIGCOMM conference taking place this month, we observed that congestion control still gets an hour in the program, 35 years after the first paper on TCP congestion control was published. So it seems like a good time to appreciate just how much the success of the internet has depended on its approach to managing congestion.
