The online world has changed, for your business or agency.
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority has given out its last block of IPV-4 addresses.
This means that sometime in the near future, every new device that you connect to the Internet will use a new kind of address - IPV-6.
Federal agencies have been making the move to that protocol for years. But a new sense of urgency has entered the picture.
Pete Tseronis, chair of the Federal IPV-6 Task Force, explains what all of this means for you and your agency.
