  • 1. Timeline on the history of the internet 1950 – Licklider left Psycho-Acoustic Laboratory at Harvard University to go to MIT after becoming interested in IT. 1957 – Licklider got the first production PDP-1 computer and conducted the first public demonstration of time sharing. 1958 - The internet began in February 1969 – The first two nodes of what would become the ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network) were interconnected between UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) and SRI (Stanford Research Institute). 1973 - Vinton Cerf and Robert Kahn developed the first description of the TCP (transmission control protocol) protocols. 1974 – A paper was published about the TCP protocols in May. 1976 – The X.25 packet (X.25 is an ITU-T standard network layer protocol for packet switched wide area network (WAN) communication. All info in this bracket area is from - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.25 ) switching standard was developed in the CCITT (now called ITU-T Telecommunication Standardization Sector) 1978 - The British Post Office, Telenet, DATAPAC and TRANSPAC collaborated to create the first international packet-switched network service. 1980 • ARPANET grinds to a complete halt on 27 October because of status-message virus 1981 • BITNET, the quot;Because It's Time NETworkquot; 1982 • Norway leaves network to become an Internet connection via TCP/IP over SATNET; • original connections between the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, and UK
  • 2. Exterior Gateway Protocol (RFC 827) specification. EGP is used for gateways between networks. 1983 • Name server developed at Univ of Wisconsin, no longer requiring users to know the exact path to other systems 1984 • Domain Name System (DNS) introduced 1985 • Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link (WELL) started Information Sciences Institute (ISI) at USC is given responsibility for DNS root management by DCA, and SRI for DNS NIC registrations NSFNET created (backbone speed of 56Kbps) 1987 • Email link established between Germany and China using CSNET protocols, with the first message from China sent on 20 September. (:wz1:) 1988 • 2 November - Internet worm burrows through the Net, affecting ~6,000 of the 60,000 hosts on the Internet (:ph1:) 1989 • Number of hosts breaks 100,000 RIPE (Reseaux IP Europeens) formed (by European service providers) to ensure the necessary administrative and technical coordination to allow the operation of the pan-European IP Network. (:glg:) 1990 • ARPANET ceases to exist Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is founded by Mitch Kapor 1991 • First connection takes place between Brazil, by Fapesp, and the Internet at 9600 baud. World-Wide Web (WWW) released by CERN; Tim Berners-Lee developer (:pb1:). First Web server is nxoc01.cern.ch, launched in Nov 1990 and later renamed info.cern.ch. 1992 • Internet Society (ISOC) is chartered (January) IAB reconstituted as the Internet Architecture Board and becomes part of the Internet Society Number of hosts breaks 1,000,000
  • 3. 1993 InterNIC created by NSF to provide specific Internet services: (:sc1:) • directory and database services (AT&T) • registration services (Network Solutions Inc.) • information services (General Atomics/CERFnet) US White House comes on-line (http://www.whitehouse.gov/): • President Bill Clinton: president@whitehouse.gov • Vice-President Al Gore: vice-president@whitehouse.gov 1994 • ARPANET/Internet celebrates 25th anniversary 1995 • NSFNET reverts back to a research network 1996 Internet phones catch the attention of US telecommunication companies who ask the US Congress to ban the technology (which has been around for years) Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, PLO Leader Yasser Arafat, and Phillipine President Fidel Ramos meet for ten minutes in an online interactive chat session on 17 January. Restrictions on Internet use around the world: • China: requires users and ISPs to register with the police • Germany: cuts off access to some newsgroups carried on CompuServe • Saudi Arabia: confines Internet access to universities and hospitals • Singapore: requires political and religious content providers to register with the state • New Zealand: classifies computer disks as quot;publicationsquot; that can be censored and seized • source: Human Rights Watch 1997 • 2000th RFC: quot;Internet Official Protocol Standardsquot; 1998 • Network Solutions registers its 2 millionth domain on 4 May Electronic postal stamps become a reality,

The SQL Slammer worm causes one of the largest and fastest spreading DDoS attacks ever. Taking roughly 10 minutes to spread worldwide, the worm took down 5 of the 13 DNS root servers along with tens of thousands of other servers, and impacted a multitude of systems ranging from (bank) ATM systems to air traffic control to emergency (911) systems (25 Jan). This is followed in August by the Sobig.F virus (19 Aug), the fastest spreading virus ever, and the Blaster (MSBlast) worm (11 Aug), another one of the most destructive worms ever k.root-servers.net changes to using nsd vs. bind to increase diversity of software in the root name server system (19 Feb) .nl registrations open up to anyone, including individuals and foreigners (29 Jan); .se also opens up its registration in April. .af is redelegated on 8 Jan and becomes live once again on 12 Feb with UNDP technical assistance. First domains are moc.gov.af and undp.org.af (15 Feb)
