In Latin America, there are still some deficiencies in this regard which result in many people experiencing high latencies in their connections. The main reason for these latencies is the lack of local interconnection between different network operators, which means that traffic between nearby countries must often use distant Internet exchange points, located in the United States or Europe. The deployment of various Internet exchange points (IXPs) has helped improve this situation, although the actual status of connectivity between countries and networks remains a mystery. To find answers to these unknowns, some time ago LACNIC created Simón1, a project that seeks to generate information by measuring latency levels between countries and in this way estimate traffic volumes.

  • Using Whois Based Geolocation and Google Maps API for Support Cybercrime Investigations
    Recent Advances in Telecommunications and Circuits Using Whois Based Geolocation and Google Maps API for support cybercrime investigations Asmir Butkovic*, Fahrudin Orucevic**, Anel Tanovic*** * Sector for Informatics, Police Support Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Aleja Bosne Srebrene bb, Sarajevo 71000, Bosnia and Herzegovina ** Department of Computer Science and Informatics University of Sarajevo, Faculty of Electrical Engineering Zmaja od Bosne bb, Sarajevo 71000, Bosnia and Herzegovina *** Department of Computer Science and Informatics University of Sarajevo, Sarajevo School of Science and Technology Zmaja od Bosne bb, Sarajevo 71000, Bosnia and Herzegovina [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: - A major challenge facing all law-enforcement and intelligence-gathering organizations is accurately and efficiently analyzing the growing volumes of crime data. Cybercrime refers to any crime that involves a computer and network, where computer may or may not play an instrumental part in the commission of the crime. Detection and investigation of cybercrime can likewise be difficult because busy network traffic and frequent online transactions generate large amounts of data, only a small portion of which relates to illegal activities. In this paper, we are focusing on technologies that can help to improve the effective investigation of cybercrime, facilitate police work and enable investigators to allocate their time to other tasks. We have developed an IP mapping tool called MIPA that combines online mapping techniques and IP geolocation technology, and uses application functionality from disparate web sources. The emergence of the Web 2.0 and user-friendly online mapping techniques have created public interest in contributing information through Web- enabled geospatial tools.

  • Exploring and Analysing the African Web Ecosystem
    1 Exploring and Analysing the African Web Ecosystem 2 3 4 RODÉRICK FANOU ?, CAIDA/University of California, San Diego (UCSD), USA 5 † GARETH TYSON, Queen Mary University of London, United Kingdom 6 7 EDER LEAO FERNANDES, Queen Mary University of London, United Kingdom 8 PIERRE FRANCOIS, Independent Contributor, France 9 10 FRANCISCO VALERA, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), Spain 11 ARJUNA SATHIASEELAN, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom 12 13 It is well known that Internet infrastructure deployment is progressing at a rapid pace in the African continent. A urry of recent 14 research has quantied this, highlighting the expansion of its underlying connectivity network. However, improving the infrastructure 15 is not useful without appropriately provisioned services to exploit it. This paper measures the availability and utilisation of web 16 17 infrastructure in Africa. Whereas others have explored web infrastructure in developed regions, we shed light on practices in developing 18 regions. To achieve this, we apply a comprehensive measurement methodology to collect data from a variety of sources. We rst focus 19 on Google to reveal that its content infrastructure in Africa is, indeed, expanding. That said, we nd that much of its web content is still 20 served from the US and Europe, despite being the most popular website in many African countries. We repeat the same analysis across 21 a number of other regionally popular websites to nd that even top African websites prefer to host their content abroad. To explore 22 the reasons for this, we evaluate some of the major bottlenecks facing content delivery networks (CDNs) in Africa.

  • IANA Report on Recognition of Afrinic As a Regional Internet Registry
    IANA Report Subject: Recognition of AfriNIC as a Regional Internet Registry Date: 6 April 2005 The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (the IANA), as part of the administrative functions associated with management of the Internet Protocol (IP) address space, is responsible for evaluating applications for approval of new Regional Internet Registries. ICANN has received an application for final approval and recognition of the African Internet Numbers Registry (AfriNIC) as the fifth Regional Internet Registry (RIR). Background The role and responsibilities of ICANN/IANA in this area are defined in the Address Supporting Organization Memorandum of Understanding <http://www.icann.org/aso/aso- mou-29oct04.htm> (ASO MOU), and ICP-2 <http://www.icann.org/icp/icp-2.htm> ("Criteria for Establishment of New Regional Internet Registries"). In September 2004, an application was submitted by the AfriNIC organization for recognition, together with a detailed transition which included draft bylaws, policies, funding model, and staff resumes. On request of the ICANN President, the IANA staff conducted a preliminary evaluation. In September 2004 the President reported to the Board his conclusion that the application and transition plan constituted a reasonable basis for eventual recognition, though he noted that some adjustments would be necessary. Also in September 2004, the existing RIRs, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC and RIPE NCC, through the Number Resource Organization (NRO), issued a statement expressing their ongoing and continuing support for AfriNIC, and recommending a favorable response to the application by recognizing AfriNIC's accomplishments thus far. Consistent with the IANA©s preliminary evaluation and the recommendations of the existing RIRs, the ICANN Board on 30 September 2004 gave provisional approval <http://www.icann.org/minutes/resolutions-30sep04.htm> to the AfriNIC application, with the expectation that the transition plan would be completed and an amended or revised application for recognition would be submitted.

    RIPE NETWORK COORDINATION CENTRE RIPE NCC Saudi Arabia Country Report Date: January 2019 RIPE NCC Saudi Arabia Country Report | 2019 RIPE NETWORK COORDINATION CENTRE Introduction This report describes the current state of Internet development in Saudi Arabia and the surrounding Arabic-speaking countries. It examines growth trends and the optimisation of Internet routing in the region and evaluates the efficiency of our K-root service, which is part of the global Domain Name System (DNS). The report focuses on what we can observe and measure from RIPE NCC services and measurement infrastructure in the region. With a greater number of data collection points and more information sharing between stakeholders in the region, we would be able to provide an even more detailed and complete analysis of the situation in the future. To this end, the report also contains information on how all stakeholders can help support further analysis. Growing Internet Use in the GCC “High penetration across the board” In recent years, the percentage of people using the Internet across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries has continued to rise, sometimes steadily, sometimes quite sharply. If we compare the situation at the end of 2017 to the situation in 2010, we see that the proportion of people using the Internet in this group of countries has risen by an average of approximately 35%. Figure 1 provides an overview of the rise in the number of Internet users in the GCC against the backdrop of population growth. Figure 1: Growth in the number of Internet users per GCC country (indicated by dotted lines) and growth in population (indicated by shaded areas) from 2010 to the end of 2017.
