MANRS Programs
MANRS requires collaboration among participants and shared responsibility for the global Internet routing system. Joining MANRS means joining a community of security-minded organizations committed to making the global routing infrastructure more robust and secure.
Implement the MANRS actions and join the MANRS community via one of our four programs: Network Operators, Internet Exchange Points, CDN and Cloud Providers, and Equipment Vendors. Participants implement tailored, relevant actions that ultimately help defend the Internet against route hijacks, route leaks, IP address spoofing, and other attacks.

We at Brphonia understand and contribute to the dissemination of good practices, which makes the internet safer for us and our customers. Given this importance, we join the MANRS partners.
Network AnalystThe Internet is humanity's greatest collective work! For Azion that is part of this ecosystem, of this collective work and ensuring that Internet traffic is routed reliably worldwide is an essential element for a reliable global Internet. Based on common network operating practices currently in effect, the global Internet routing system does not have sufficient security controls to prevent the injection of false routing information. The lack of these controls creates a significant vulnerability, which can result in thousands of traffic incidents. The MANRS initiative, promoted by the Internet Society, overcomes this collective problem by establishing a security baseline with concrete actions for network operators. The actions are supported by a growing community of more than 200 networks worldwide. Currently, there are more than 7,000 autonomous systems in Brazil, country of Azion's origin, with only 33 of these autonomous systems participating in MANRS. The idea is to expand the number of companies involved so that, together, they can work to make the Internet a safe environment. This is Azion's main objective in participating in MANRS.
Network Planning Director, AZIONRENU joins MANRS to improve its security posture on the internet by acting upon and deploying MANRS actions that can improve the security of the global routing table. For a long time, multiple routing incidents such as route hijacks, route leaks and IP address spoofing have occurred on the internet causing network outages and cost implications to many companies. RENU also wants to ease collaboration with other network operators thus encouraging stability and reliability on the internet.
Senior Networks Engineer - Research and Education Network for Uganda (RENU)PIT Bolivia’s vision is to be a point of reference in the digital environment that contributes to the improvement of the Internet in Bolivia. For this it is vital to implement good international practices to ensure routing between the different Internet agents in Bolivia that exchange traffic.
General manager, PIT BoliviaFor Arista, security is a key attribute of our overall solution, starting at the routing perimeter for worldwide Internet resiliency. As a global industry leader in cloud networking, we want to take part in the efforts to secure the Internet as well. MANRS is providing great guidelines to achieve that goal and Arista Networks is proud to be a founding participant of the MANRS Vendor Program.
Senior Vice President, Customer Engineering for Arista NetworksTier4 Services adapted a clearly defined mission: to uphold the tough standards of high-speed communication via the Internet every minute of the day and provide secure communications. MANRS is a great initiative to help to improve the standards on a global scale and make the Internet more secure.
Sam Online has endeavored to keep up a safe and flexible network, conveying the most refreshed prescribed procedures and, as a National ISP Network, spreading them to its clients so as to get from them a dedication of sending these accepted procedures in their systems also. Holding fast to MANRS activity fortifies this position.
GOLINE firmly believes in initiatives to protect networks, improve security and resilience of the global routing system. Therefore we decided to support the MANRS project and join as participants.
Managing DirectorWe believe the security, stability, and resiliency of the Internet operation can be improved via distributed and shared responsibilities as documented in MANRS. As one of the largest academic networks in the world, CERNET is committed to the MANRS actions.
Deputy Director, CERNETMANRS represents the future of Internet routing security. Network operators in the MANRS community are pioneers, making global routing infrastructure as robust and secure as possible, through innovation and investment. As a leading global communications and network service provider, China Telecom (Americas) has been collaborating with the MANRS team since early 2019 to implement the best routing security standards on all of our major Internet networks. Today, we are excited to be count ourselves as a MANRS participant, and hopefully inspire more large-scale network operators to join our ranks.
Vice President, China Telecom Americas CorporationBeing MANRS compliant not only improves our routing security capabilities, but has the potential to help other networks to improve theirs and is an opportunity for Akamai to make a significant contribution to the improvement of global routing security.
1&1 Internet is committed to responsible network routing practices and robust global routing policies as a foundation of a resilient Internet. MANRS is a great initiative to help operators live up to the necessary standards.
