MANRS Programs
MANRS requires collaboration among participants and shared responsibility for the global Internet routing system. Joining MANRS means joining a community of security-minded organizations committed to making the global routing infrastructure more robust and secure.
Implement the MANRS actions and join the MANRS community via one of our four programs: Network Operators, Internet Exchange Points, CDN and Cloud Providers, and Equipment Vendors. Participants implement tailored, relevant actions that ultimately help defend the Internet against route hijacks, route leaks, IP address spoofing, and other attacks.
Testimonials
It is in everyone's best interest to keep the internet clean. By doing our part and conforming to the objectives stated by MANRS, we can reduce the impact of intended and unintended misconfigurations and the risk of abuse of internet resources and we hope that others will do so as well.
BIT BVIXSal, the first IXP in operation for El Salvador, has come a long way in order to get the early adopters together, interconnected, and exchanging traffic. We are aiming at getting more local operators connected, and one of the key added values we offer is our adhesion to world security and stability standards and good practices. For sure, MANRS is one of those practices and guidelines that help us make the Internet traffic more secure in El Salvador, and thus we are confident that, by complying with MANRS, we contribute to a better Internet for all.
Executive DirectorMANRS is an excellent initiative that has allowed us to direct a greater focus on the security aspects related to our BGP infrastructure
ColoClue strongly believes in making the internet better by implementing security features sooner rather than later. We've been doing strict filtering based on IRR data for a long time; when RPKI became a thing, we soon implemented that too. We believe that the objectives of MANRS perfectly align with the goals of ColoClue, so it only makes sense to join!
