Have you ever tried to come up with the actual number combinations you can get from 4 sets of 3 numbers? That’s the format of today’s IPv4 ip addressing scheme, and we seem to be just about out of numbers. Think of it as not having any additional phone numbers or IP addresses to issue to the next 4 million iPhones or PC users around the globe. Welcome to the world of IPV6- the Next Generation Internet protocol.
IPv6 is short for "Internet Protocol Version 6. Its designed to replace IPv4 and provide a limitless number of IP addresses for routers, mobile devices and other end user appliances which are existing or planned for users of “the big fat digital pipe” known as the internet. The extended address length eliminates the need to use network address translation to avoid address exhaustion, and also simplifies aspects of address assignment and renumbering when changing providers.
Over the course of the next 4-6 years, we’ll see a transition in router configurations, telecommunications systems, data applications, increased security measures and a reliance on a host of new devices passing data and pulling the future into the present.
But what does Ipv6 mean for IT security. What aspects need critical security measures to insure the NexGen is not hampered by increased threats and vulnerabilities? Security in the Ipv6 model has raised many questions. We will explore the possibilities and the areas to consider as points of vulnerability as the IEFT finalizes standards and practices.
DoD should be the first institution to convert to the new protocol. Directives were issued for active usage within the DoD by 2008. Some testing has been completed but, many products manufacturers have released Ipv6 functionality, but there are relatively no full blown capabilities or networks ready to crawl on to the web.
IPSec protocols operate at the network layer, layer 3 of the OSI model. The same is true for Ipv6.
IPSec implementation is a mandatory part of IPv6.
IPSec provides security services at the IP layer by enabling a system to select required security protocols, determine the algorithm(s) to use for the service(s), and put in place any cryptographic keys required to provide the requested services. IPSec can be used to protect one or more "paths" between a pair of hosts, between a pair of security gateways, or between a security gateway and a host.- RFC 2401
IP3 will provide a wealth of world class information during its delivery of a one day Ipv6 security seminar. This series is designed for professionals who need to understand the business dynamics, infrastructure impact, policy and economical ramifications of IPV6 implementations.
We will provide coverage of the following:
