What is RPKI?

Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) is a security framework that prevents unauthorized BGP route announcements by cryptographically verifying the origin of IP prefixes.

Route Origin Authorization (ROA)

A cryptographic attestation that a specific AS is authorized to announce a given IP prefix. ROAs are published in RPKI repositories maintained by each RIR.

Route Origin Validation (ROV)

The process of checking BGP announcements against published ROAs. Networks that enforce ROV reject routes with invalid origins, preventing hijacks.

Why It Matters

Without RPKI, any AS can announce any prefix. BGP hijacks have disrupted major services — from cryptocurrency theft to government surveillance. RPKI is the internet's first line of defense.

856,096 ROAs Across All Five RIRs

Prefix Object Fields

Live today on ASN lookups:

rpki_status

RPKI validation result for the prefix. One of: valid, invalid:origin, invalid:length, not_found.

netblock

The prefix in CIDR notation (e.g. 8.8.8.0/24).

name

Organization the prefix is registered to.

country

ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code for the prefix.

status

RIR allocation status (e.g. ALLOCATED, ASSIGNED).

What You Can Build With RPKI Data

Route origin validation for security operations, network management, compliance, and research.

Network Security

Detect BGP hijacks and route leaks in real time. Validate that traffic reaches its intended destination by checking RPKI status before trusting route announcements.

ISP & Carrier Operations

Monitor RPKI deployment across your network and peers. Identify prefixes missing ROAs and prioritize signing to protect customer traffic.

Compliance & Risk Assessment

Audit RPKI coverage across your IP portfolio and supply chain. Generate reports showing which prefixes are protected and which remain vulnerable.

Internet Measurement

Track global RPKI adoption trends by RIR, country, and AS. Research routing security posture and identify regions lagging in deployment.
