The Internet’s infrastructure is under attack constantly. Those who work with these networks on a daily basis know this. The daily successes of keeping things up and running generally go unnoticed, but when there are problems there can be hell to pay. That’s why preparation is so important. One kind of preparation often overlooked is legislative preparation. Attempts to try to prevent reactive legislation that would be problematic for the Internet, and to help create paths to sensible legislation that would help, are an important aspect of network sustainability. As attacks increase on our networks, legislators increasingly have our businesses in their scope. Only prior planning can ensure that policy doesn’t disrupt the security, stability and resiliency of our networks.
