At the same time, even with the slow rate of adoption, IPv6 vulnerabilities are popping up since we are deploying IPv6-optimized IA/Security tools too slowly. In the Network World article oecommerce Chief Faces 5 Internet Emergencies? the former chairman of the US NTIA declares ?Promoting IPv6? as an oeinternet Emergency? The problem that we are facing, making promotion of IPv6 an oeinternet Emergency? , is that it will actually take years to properly ?operationalize? secure IPv6 capabilities in most carrier?s networks and enterprise infrastructure - - and we?re only 3-5 years from needing it to be operational. Taking too long to activate IPv6 as IPv4 resources dwindle could leave us with a gap in services that will affect Internet availability. That makes IPv6 deployment a business continuity issue for companies that use networked computers for operations, and ecommerce, email, VOIP, etc?
