IPv6 Security

IPv6 introduces a new set of security threats.

Firstly, there are the threats associated with the new protocol itself. These include, the abuse of core parts of IPv6 such as Neighbor Discovery (ND) and ICMPv6.

Then there are threats resulting from the new features in IPv6 such as IPSec, IPv6 Mobility and Router Renumbering.

Finally, IPv6 introduces a whole series of risks from the many transition mechanisms that have been developed to ease the migration from IPv4 to IPv6.

Securing IPv6

When implementing IPv6 you need to pay particular attention to security. The differences between IPv4 and IPv6 lead to differences in security threats and mitigation techniques.

Erion's consultants are experienced at securing IPv6 networks on many platforms.
