Overview
This year saw IPv6 adoption worldwide surpassing the twenty-five percent mark. While previously only used by some innovative attackers, the incentive to explore the space for fresh targets grows as more than a quarter of the Internet is now IPv6-capable. Many organizations are challenged with adequate monitoring of their IPv6 networks, misconfigured devices and a shortage of time to implement IPv6 best practices.
In this session, we’ll aim to spur more conversations and curiosity in the IPv6 security space by:
- Examining ways to enumerate an oasis of infrastructure in the large desert of addresses
- Discussing current malware observed with IPv6 capabilities
- Remarking on some already observed security issues with the protocol
