Podcasts about IPv6

Transitioning from IPv4 to IPv6, or at least IPv6-mostly, is no easy task. Today’s show provides some education and advice about IPv6 transition mechanisms. We cover options such as NAT64, DNS64, PREF64, and more, as well as use cases. Also, if your technology vendors aren’t offering some of these mechanisms, ask for them – you’re... Read more »

It’s time to talk crypto. No, not the Bitcoin kind. Ethan and Holly introduce the basics of IPsec, the protocol that authenticates and encrypts traffic between endpoints. They discuss what it is, how it provides trustworthiness and secrecy to IP traffic, and common use cases. They review the different types of IPsec protocols and modes,... Read more »

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. IPv6 for Luddites Andrew (aka mcnalu) recently triggered Beni by saying that he turns off IPv6 in order to get devices working on his home network. In this show Beni educates Andrew the Luddite and explains why moving from IPv4 to IPv6 is a good idea. They also explore how IPv6 can be used in a world where ISPs and devices do not all support it and what tools, tips and tricks are available during this rather long transitional phase to the newish (like 30 years old, a blink of an eye in IT) protocol. Relevant RFCs RFC 4861: Neighbor Discovery (basically the ICMP based replacement of ARP) RFC 4862: Stateless Address Configuration RFC 4941: Privacy Extension for SLAAC RFC 6146: NAT64 RFC 6147: DNS64 RFC 6877: XLAT464 (Allow your legacy software to talk to its legacy server in an IPv6 only environment) Provide feedback on this episode.

Nick Bouwhuis vertelt hoe hij zijn eigen internetprovider opzette. Overdag werkt hij als NOC-engineer bij SpeakUp, maar ’s avonds bouwt hij aan zijn eigen netwerk. Van het aanvragen van een AS-nummer en IP-adressen tot het leggen van kabels in Nikhef: alles komt voorbij. Samen met Niels Raijer duikt hij met Randal in de wereld van BGP, peering en transit Niels deelt zijn ervaringen als oprichter van Fusix en geeft context bij de keuzes die je moet maken als je provider wilt spelen. Waarom zijn IPv4-adressen zo duur, waarom moeten we écht overstappen op IPv6, en hoe werkt dat hele BGP-protocol eigenlijk? Het gesprek gaat van technische diepgang naar anekdotes over hackersfestivals, juridische brieven van Odido en creatieve manieren om het internet een beetje beter te maken.

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com According to Forrester, 48% of organizations have more than one hundred tools in a typical toolchain. How many are not being used? How many duplicates are there? How many can remove abilities in other tools? When you deal with a company, they are getting paid to focus on their solution and ignore others. When you deal with a reseller, they have biases, respond to changes quickly, and understand the complexities of vendors in “swim lanes,” which can include competitors. Today, we sit down with Sam O'Daniel, the President and CEO of TVAR. The conversation ranged from selection of the correct tool to procurement and licensing models. For example, in a recent interview, Scott Rose from NIST talked about modern technology that may include IPv6. The sad news is that it prevents scanning address blocks because it cannot scan all the addresses that IPv6 covers. TVAR collaborates with numerous vendors and is familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of each. Additionally, he understands which vendors work well together and respects the concept of their “swim lanes” in the context of federal technology. A typical federal leader cannot spend five hours a day keeping up with modern technology; resellers must maintain updated knowledge, which they can provide federal agencies with a perspective that few have. The conversation also addresses the challenges of procurement and the need for tool consolidation to minimize government waste.

Forecast = Cloudy with a chance of zero-days-watch for Spellbinder storms and scattered Git leaks! ‍ On this episode of Storm⚡️Watch, the crew dives into the fast-moving world of vulnerability tracking and threat intelligence, spotlighting how defenders are moving beyond the traditional CVE system to keep pace with real-world attacks. The show kicks off with a look at the latest listener poll, always a source of lively debate, before jumping into some of the most pressing cybersecurity stories of the week. A major focus of this episode is the recent revelation that a China-aligned APT group, dubbed TheWizards, is using a tool called Spellbinder to abuse IPv6 SLAAC for adversary-in-the-middle attacks. This technique lets attackers move laterally through networks by hijacking software update mechanisms-specifically targeting popular Chinese applications like Sogou Pinyin and Tencent QQ-to deliver malicious payloads such as the modular WizardNet backdoor. The crew unpacks how this approach leverages IPv6's stateless address autoconfiguration to intercept and redirect legitimate traffic, underscoring the evolving sophistication of lateral movement techniques in targeted campaigns. The episode then turns to Google's 2024 zero-day exploitation analysis, which reports a drop in the total number of zero-days exploited compared to last year but highlights a worrying shift: attackers are increasingly targeting enterprise products and infrastructure. Microsoft, Ivanti, Palo Alto Networks, and Cisco are among the most targeted vendors, with nearly half of all zero-day exploits now aimed at enterprise systems and network appliances. The discussion covers how attackers are chaining vulnerabilities for more impactful breaches and why defenders need to be vigilant as threat actors pivot to harder-to-monitor enterprise environments. Censys is in the spotlight for its recent research and tooling, including a new Ports & Protocols Dashboard that gives organizations granular visibility into their attack surface across all ports and protocols. This helps teams quickly spot risky exposures and misconfigurations, making it easier to prioritize remediation efforts and automate alerting for high-risk assets. The crew also highlights Censys's collaborative work on botnet hunting and their ongoing push to retire stale threat indicators, all of which are reshaping proactive defense strategies. runZero's latest insights emphasize the importance of prioritizing risks at the asset stack level, not just by CVE. The crew explains how misconfigurations, outdated software, and weak network segmentation can create stacked risks that traditional scanners might miss, urging listeners to adopt a more holistic approach to asset management and vulnerability prioritization. Rounding out the episode, GreyNoise shares new research on a dramatic spike in scanning for Ivanti Connect Secure VPNs and a surge in crawling activity targeting Git configuration files. These trends highlight the persistent risk of codebase exposure and the critical need to secure developer infrastructure, as exposed Git configs can lead to the leak of sensitive credentials and even entire codebases. As always, the show wraps up with some final thoughts and goodbyes, leaving listeners with actionable insights and a reminder to stay vigilant in the face of rapidly evolving cyber threats. If you have questions or want to hear more about any of these topics, let us know-what's on your mind this week? Storm Watch Homepage >> Learn more about GreyNoise >>
