Re: BGP Attack - Best Defense ?

I am signed up for the Prefix Hijack Alert System (phas.netsec.colostate.edu) and would be alerted in about 6 hours (or less?) about a prefix announcement change.

Would the alerts go to a mail server behind said BGP prefixes? Also, if you're gonna bother at all.. I'd humbly suggest that 6 hours is too long to wait. Without naming names, consider if this response time is adequate, and if not, look at some of the commercial options.
