Stability Factors
• Server and network operations.– Software and hardware diversity– Location and networking diversity– Diversity in operational models– Organizational diversity– Monitoring– Operational experience
• Data integrity.– Authenticated data transfers.– Monitoring

Strategic Challenges
• Fundaments– Content governance. STABILITY IS
CRUCIAL!– Technology.
• Internet Standard compliance
– Finance.
• Scaling– Growing in line with the demand ...– ... from end users.– ... from (top level) domain name holders.– ... from the root content authority.

Some Direct Threats
• Distributed Denial of Service Attacks?– Anycast
• "Packet of Death"?– Software and platform diversity– VERY close relationship with software
developers
• Social Engineering?– Organizational diversity– Very good collaboration btw. root ops

Some Direct Threats
• Bad data?– Need unquestionable authority for data!– Strong editing procedures are essential– Signed data transfers
• False root servers?– TSIG doesn't scale– SIG(0) might work, but not widespread,
cumbersome– Legal prosecution? Slow!– Waiting for DNSSEC (helps authenticating data,
not servers, but mitigates problem)
