as smb has said for years, routing and dns are the two largest
vulnerabilities.  

something like it, for sure.  but i vastly prefer the s-bgp
approach as it maps closely to bgp operational reality, and does
not rely on a published policy database, which we have seen fail
for over a decade, etc.

we should learn from the decade-long problems with the deployment
issues in dnssec, and map routing security as closely as possible
to operational protocol and reality.
