Iran has now been largely offline for 18 hours, with an #Internet shutdown put into place following strikes by the US & Israel. However, small amounts of Web & DNS traffic are still getting through, and IPv4 routes remain available, suggesting some users and sites are allowlisted for access.

ASPA: making Internet routing more secure This view allows users to observe ASPA adoption trends over time across the five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs), and view ASPA records and changes over time at the Autonomous System (AS) level.

ASPA is the cryptographic upgrade for BGP that helps prevent route leaks by verifying the path network traffic takes. New features in Cloudflare Radar make tracking its adoption easy. https://cfl.re/4kZ0c0p
