Though, IPV6 has presented a long list of features that will actually change the entire networking environment, it still represents a very small proportion of Internet traffic. One of the major reasons behind its partial acceptance is its security, as these features were incorporated in IPV6 just to enhance its overall performance and quality of service, thereby neglecting its security part.
One such feature is Stateless Address Auto Configuration or simply SLAAC, which have undoubtedly reduced a lot of overhead in configuring networks, but on the same time it has challenged the security of IPV6 networks. This research work, therefore targets at proposing some security policies to mitigate the risks associated with SLAAC, by understanding its working scenario and trying to create the possible attack vector to highlight its security concerns. Hence, the implementation of these policies will directly add security to networks and make them resistant to SLAAC based attacks.
With 44% of the world's Internet population, China is a dominating force on the Web. .WANG may not be recognizable to non-Chinese users, but "wang" is a translation of the character 网 and represents the word "website." Since the character itself could not be its own string (no one character strings were allowed), .WANG is meant as an alternative for Chinese users across the globe. .WANG can be used by anyone, for any purpose, making it a great extension for hooking into the Chinese global community.
