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.
