Hi all, I figure there's probably some folks on the list that have hands in
environments that touch credit cards. Unlike HIPAA compliance, or even
social security numbers, PCI is very ambiguous about what must occur if a
network/systems breach occurs that exposes credit card data. PCI, and its

There are generic templates available to write your company security policy.
That policy doesn’t necessarily constitute legal definitions or requirements

There is an ongoing pattern of OmanTel hijacking IP space and advertising it to

Hi Guys
We are an ISP in the Caribbean, and are faced with extremely high Bandwidth
costs, compared to the US, we currently use Peer App for Caching however
with most services now moving to HTTPS the cache is proving to be less and
less effective. We are currently looking at any way we can save on
The first step would be profiling your traffic sources. I would imagine you
probably have a bunch of YouTube, Netflix et al. content, that those content
providers will send you a cache box for, subject to minimum traffic
requirements.

I reached out to my vendor and got back the following. Also what services have
you seen move to HTTPS that you're not able to cache?
Hi Luke,
Regarding HTTPS Streaming and Netflix...
Netflix announced in the spring of 2015 that it would move to HTTPS delivery by
April of 2016. At the time of

When you simply bring down an ebgp session, withdraws will propagate throughout
the network.
Soon after, the alternate routes will propagate. In the interim, some routers
will lose connectivity.
This problem is solved by graceful shutdown.
This only works for planned shutdown
This interim time ca
Netflix won’t even begin talks for their cache if you're not doing a minimum of
5Gbps. They also require massive uploads to the cache often, these are things

only grab what's already being consumed.

I don't know the the Caribbean Internet Exchanges market. Are any worth
peering at versus buying additional L2 bandwidth to Miami?

The challenges are almost certainly economics related, at the lack of
competition and high costs for layer 1/2 transport from his Caribbean
island to Miami. Via whatever submarine cables exist that are controlled by
larger ILEC type entities/telcos. Or satellite (whether geostationary

I believe the ISP is located in Trinidad & Tobago.
There are five international submarine cables that land on the island:
- SG-SCS
- Americas-II
- ECFS
- Southern Caribbean Fiber
- ECLink
Of those, 1 go to the closest real interconnectivity hub of Miami, with the
others requiring another pair on
Seemingly also a GGC is there: https://ix.tt/cache-services-now-live-at-ttix/
maybe if the cost is low it might be worth it, assuming the incumbent doesn’t
make it prohibitive.

I am not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice, but...
General rule is to always notify the credit card companies, and to notify
legal. One/both/neither may advice law enforcement activity. In either
case, your PCI-required Incident response plan is required to do certain
isolation steps explicit

The problem with the local cache[s] is the bandwidth cost of populating the
cache and keeping it coherent can be greater than the bandwidth saved. From
your description, I would expect this to be the case so a local cache will
not help. Rule of thumb is if your downstream traffic is not at least
