IP Reputation: The Proactive Defense against Botnets and Criminal Malware

Executive Summary

Botnets are among the most dangerous and pervasive security threats. It is estimated that as many as 25% of computers connected to the Internet may be infected, including 88% of F500 companies. This new crop of criminal malware is more malicious and more sophisticated than ever, and the dominant security approaches today—deep packet inspection and signatures—have proven to be ineffective in dealing with them.

IP Reputation

IP reputation is the profiling of IP addresses to determine whether they are “good or bad”. It enables network administrators to set a policy to allow or block communication to and from these addresses. In contrast to the currently dominant approach which tries to track the signature of each and every attack, IP reputation tracks who is doing the attacking.
