By getting their product available for Qrator Labs' customers by integrating into the Qrator anycast filtering network.

BGP Route leaks vs BGP Hijacks

Since 2014 Qrator Labs has developed a BGP monitoring and analytics service called Qrator.Radar.  One of its main features is monitoring specific BGP anomalies that could result in an incident that we would further call either a BGP route leak or BGP hijack.

Both of them reroute traffic to third parties, compared to the no-anomaly state, but differently. Over the last few years, a lot of efforts have been invested in solving those issues, but there are still misunderstandings about what is what and how different tools are helping resolve different problems.

Greetings, fellow newsletter subscriber! Once again, we are back with the best stories and articles published on the topic of cybersecurity in two weeks, between 14 and 28 February, the year 2021.

Yesterday, on February 19 Internet observed yet another demonstration of a handy Noction feature that is probably supposed to get you rich but is more likely to make you infamous.

Starting from 09:48 UTC, we saw around 200 thousand routes of previously non-existent prefixes with broken AS_PATH. But first things first.

The day started with a rather harsh and buzzing sound of email notifications for critical routing events, which, as you can see, are cut off on such a high threshold that we consider those to be global. 

Hello and welcome back to the regular cyber and infosecurity letter! This time we are going through the relevant articles published 8 - 14 February 2021.

February 11, 2021 - AS28548 - Cablevision - leaked 2828 prefixes, creating 2828 conflicts for 763 ASNs in 80 countries. Maximum propagation: 93%. Severity: High.

Greetings, fellow subscribers! As usual on Sundays, we are back with the most relevant and interesting articles published between February 1 and 7, 2021. 

Welcome back to the cybersecurity newsletter! This time, we are looking at the two weeks of the most relevant stories starting with January 18.

January 27 of the year 2021 was marked with quite a peculiar route leak. AS61666 - GLOBO started announcing prefixes of its upstream provider MHNET - AS28146 to its another provider ALGAR - AS16735. In three minutes GLOBO leaked 1330 prefixes, and the whole routing incident lasted for 8 minutes - a time that was enough to create 1435 conflicts in 21 countries with 265 ASNs, mainly in Brazil (194 ASNs), United States (22 ASNs) and Venezuela (7 ASNs).
