Routing Integrity
Each of Us Protecting All of Us

Protecting our research and education (R&E) networks from common routing threats is in every institution’s best interest – and it takes a community effort.
Internet2 promotes the adoption of Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) and additional best practices to strengthen the resilience and reliability of data movement across the R&E network ecosystem to support our shared missions. Together we can protect the security of our individual networks and contribute to a safer internet for all.
No detours, no delays, and no outages – that’s the goal of Internet2’s Routing Integrity initiative.
