“Why didn’t they think of that?”

Road Trip• 80 military vehicles, 1919• Washington, D.C. to San
Francisco• 3,000 miles / 2 months

Eisenhower Interstate System

Car Culture
• Michelin Guide - Francec. 1900
• Historic Route 66 - USA• Cities thrived due to their
proximity to highways

Where is the middle of Route 66?

The Point?
What started as an infrastructure built for a very specific use-case ended up having a profound economic and sociological effect once turned over to the private sector.

Internet ARPANET• First message on ARPANET• October 29, 1969 - 2230hrs
lolThen it crashed.

The Internet was invented…• …by ______________________________• …in _______________________
humans
the 20th century
…for very specific purposes. Design requirements did not fully account for:• Unauthorized Users• Non-private networks

Then e-Commerce Happened
• UUNET - non-profit Internet access c.1988; for-profit c.1990
• The World - Offered Internet Access c.1989; full access to non ARPA-approved users by 1992
• Commercial applications prohibited until 1995

Security Concept• Initial design requirements of an infrastructure are not
necessarily what it becomes• ARPA was formed to explore computational time-sharing
across great distance; engaged academia• Eisenhower’s Interstate System fueled America’s love for
road trips and travel far beyond the initial goal of moving military vehicles
• Similarly, we have far exceeded ARPA’s intention from 50 years ago

Predictions• Started as a hard, flat surface• Adaptive construction materials• Toll Roads• Sophisticated Lighting• Dynamic Lanes• Self-driving cars

Predictions• Started as an internetworking infrastructure featuring packet
switching• Math-based encryption will include elements of quantum
computing• Broadband will become more broad and ubiquitous• Physical possession will continue to lose value; access to
information is the 21st century currency• Infosec challenges have moved up the OSI model from Layer 3
network-based attacks to Layer 7 application attacks.• Will continue to move to Layer 8.

As security professionals,our charge be to not only understand how the
technology works,but also how people interact with it.
Thanks for listening!
