In a newly published paper, RPKI: Not Perfect But Good Enough, Haya Schulmann and Niklas Vogel from Germany’s ATHENE National Research Center for Applied Cybersecurity & Goethe-Universität Frankfurt, and Michael Waidner from ATHENE and Technische Universität Darmstadt, outline a daunting range of RPKI issues that still need to be addressed for it to fulfil its promise.

The paper puts a dampener on the optimism of the US White House Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD), which last month published a roadmap asking US ISPs to hurry up with implementing RPIK to fix the widely acknowledged insecurity of BGP.
