Useless Useful Technology: IP6 #GartnerSecurity

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

These are notes from the last session at the 2009 Gartner Security Summit; a tongue in cheek look at the worst best practices in IT.

We're all familiar with the upcoming change to IP version 6. The main impetus for performing this migration is the IP space crisis.

The reality is few enterprises have a lot of public IPs. The migration to IP6 is costly and fraught with questions.

This item I almost question including because I think its more widely believed that IP6 is not worth the trouble than believe it will be a cure-all.

By 2014, 20% of remote and mobile employees will connect via a IP6 enabled ISP. That necessitates our action.
