Jim Zou from Adtran presented the challenges and opportunities with regards to securing optical networks with quantum secure methods at the Netnod Tech meeting (October 2024). He explored the differences between Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and predicted a way forward.
The Netnod Tech Meeting 2024, held on 15 October in Stockholm, brought together more than 230 professionals from across the networking, DNS, cybersecurity, and cloud computing industries.
In this Q&A, we talk with Emil Palm, Head of Network at Netnod, about how redundancy works at the Netnod Internet Exchange (IX). We look at why redundancy is so important for networks connecting to an IX, how Netnod works to ensure redundancy and the technical architecture involved.
We spoke with Marcus Dansarie, Technical Consultant at Netnod and co-author of the IETF draft on Roughtime. In the Q&A below, we examine why secure time is essential, the challenges for IoT devices, and how Roughtime could be the solution to a widespread problem.
With NIS2 soon coming into force, we look at the key points of the new directive, the relationship between process and operational security and what actions you should take now.
Lars-Johan Liman, Netnod's DNS nestor, makes a few personal reflections on the 20th anniversary of Netnod's deployment of anycast – a technology that is a crucial part of the infrastructure of Netnod's modern DNS services.
ISO27001 compliance now relies on accurate and redundant time. The latest guidelines make specific recommendations about what time sources you should use and the setup you need. So how do you ensure your organisation is compliant? We spoke with Netnod’s Security Expert, Fredrik Lindeberg, to find out more.
Everyone knows that signing your DNS zones is a good idea. However, DNSSEC can cause problems when combined with a widely used method for synchronising secondary DNS servers with their primaries, Incremental Zone Transfer (IXFR). In this post, we will look at why IXFRs are so useful and what you need to know if you want to use them together with DNSSEC.
