Hi, WatchMy.Net is a new community service to alert you when your prefix
has been hijacked, in real-time.
Following the discussion on NANOG a couple of weeks ago on what to do if
your prefix is hijacked, people mentioned that detection-wise, free
services are limited (to certain communities or by not being real-time).
The current fully public and free services will alert you with a few
hours delay.
Over labor day weekend we built a free real-time service. We invite people to
try it out during our beta stage.
Register for alerts at:
http://www.watchmy.net/
We hope you find it useful,
Avi Freedman, Andrew Fried && Gadi Evron.
