IPv6 and Security
IPv6 introduces a new set of security threats. Firstly, there are the threats associated with the new protocol itself. These include, the abuse of core parts of IPv6 such as Neighbor Discovery (ND) and ICMPv6.
Then there are threats resulting from the new features in IPv6 such as IPSec, IPv6 Mobility and Router Renumbering.
Finally, IPv6 introduces a whole series of risks from the many transition mechanisms that have been developed to ease the migration from IPv4 to IPv6.
