Enhance Your Routing Security and Resilience of Your Network Using ARIN's Hosted RPKI

For network operators in the research and education community, adopting Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) is a critical cybersecurity measure. RPKI helps resolve routing issues and protects networks against misconfiguration errors and malicious activities. 

More than 800 research and education community organizations in the United States are RPKI-ready today. To enhance their routing security and network resilience, they need to complete one simple web form with three fields to create an RPKI Route Origin Authorization (ROA). For many, it will take less than five minutes. 

Increased adoption of RPKI means a more trusted and collaborative Research and Education network ecosystem — and a safer global internet for all. Are you ready to learn more about ARIN’s hosted RPKI service and start with the easy steps to create a ROA? 

In this webinar, participants will: 

  • Define RPKI and how it can enhance network security 
  • Identify the key components of RPKI infrastructure, how it works, and important considerations 
  • Determine if their research and education institution is RPKI-ready 
  • Discover new resources tailored to the needs of the research and education community that will support RPKI adoption 
  • Successfully create a ROA in ARIN’s hosted RPKI
