Not enough people do this. Using country-level block-lists dropped the number of IP/Port scans we have received down to sub 1% of totals. It may not be an elegant approach to the problem but it is VERY effective.
- Philippe_H 6y agoWe'll (soon) provide a Backoffice, where you can choose which IP you decide to ban (based on their activities, like bot scrapping, bruteforcing, etc.) but also add some 3rd party blacklist, block some AS or ranges, Tor exit nodes or VPN. This is all being builded right now, but in a couple of months, should be available.
