The Internet has revolutionized communication, entertainment, and access to information since its inception. All of this depends on a resilient Internet infrastructure. Resilience is threatened both by analog and digital stress situations. Analog stress situations include, e.g., a global pandemic, and digital stress situations include, e.g., attacks in the Internet. In this thesis, we investigate how the Internet can handle both analog and digital stress situations. We use a diverse set of Internet vantage points to measure the stress situations and propose conceptual, reactive, and proactive solutions to improve the overall resilience of the Internet.
