Together, the intended effect of the plans, filings, and measures the Commission proposes would be to mitigate such threats. BIAS providers would be required to develop BGP Routing Security Risk Management Plans that describe their plans for and progress in implementing security measures that utilize the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI).
