This site is now part of the digital assets of the Global Cyber Alliance, Inc. (“GCA” or “we”) and is governed under its Terms of Service. Please refer to them if you wish to continue using this site and its data (collectively, the “Services”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the specific use of MANRS data shall be regulated by the following additional clauses:

1. Definitions

  • Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (hereafter referred to as “MANRS”) – a GCA supported initiative to identify and address threats to the Internet global routing system.
  • MANRS Observatory – an online tool to measure the state of routing security on the Internet and conformance of networks with the MANRS Actions, by collecting and aggregating MANRS Data from different sources.
  • MANRS Data – information relating to the state of routing security that is collected, aggregated and stored by the MANRS Observatory to indicate the conformance of networks with the MANRS Actions and made available through the MANRS.org site and the MANRS application programming interface or API.
  • MANRS Actions – best practices defined from time-to-time that aim to address the common threats to the Internet global routing system.

2. Use of the MANRS Data

2.1 Subject to these Terms of Service, you are free to access, use, copy and publish the MANRS Data that is made available to you through the Services as follows:

  • You may share information about your own network(s) provided it does not contain any personal data.
  • You may share information about other networks to other MANRS participants provided it does not contain any personal data.
  • You may only publicly share information about other networks as aggregated data or otherwise in a form that does not identify those networks, and that does not contain any personal data.

2.2 You may only use the MANRS Data for non-commercial purposes and may not re-sell, re-distribute, or sublicense the information.

2.3 If you publish or present any portion of the MANRS Data, you must acknowledge GCA and MANRS as the source by including within any such publication or present the following statement: “Provided by the MANRS with support from the Global Cyber Alliance”.’

2.4 You must not use the MANRS Data in any way that suggests that GCA or MANRS endorses yourself, your organization, or your use of the information.

2.5 GCA may change the MANRS Data feeds at any time and without notice including, for example, adding, modifying and withdrawing the types of information made available.
