GILL - The Next Generation of BGP Data Collection Platform

BGP Collection · 2024

GILL represents the next generation in BGP routes collection, designed to significantly improve the efficiency and quality of Internet routing data. By employing an innovative "overshoot-and-discard" method, GILL peers with a large network of routers, retaining only unique, non-redundant routes.

BGPRoutingData Collection

Key Features:

  • Extensive Coverage: Peers with a significantly larger number of Autonomous Systems (ASes)
  • Efficiency: Utilizes the overshoot-and-discard method to reduce data volume
  • High-Quality Insights: Provides accurate insights into AS relationships and ranks
  • Sustainability: Ensures long-term viability through advanced data management
DFOH - A System to Detect Forged-Origin Hijacks

Security · 2023

DFOH is a system that quickly and consistently detects forged-origin hijacks in the whole Internet. It detects a type of BGP hijack where the attacker manipulates the AS path to make it immune to RPKI-ROV filters and appear as legitimate routing updates.

BGPSecurityMachine Learning

Key Features:

  • Detects 90.9% of forged-origin hijacks within ≈5min
  • Reports only ≈17.5 suspicious cases per day for the whole Internet
  • Robust against real-world factors and data biases
  • Strategically selected features with adapted training scheme
