Examples

AbuseIPDB Data Overview

• Summary Tags: Quickly get insights into the confidence the IP is being abused, associated domains, number of reports submitted on the IP and categories of the reports.
• Summary Information: High level summary depicting information about the reports, timing of the report and confidence based on the reports.
• Enrichment Details: Details about the IP Address such as: related domains, number of reports, reported date, location and usage types.

The AbuseIPDB Enrichment integration for ThreatConnect enables security teams to validate the reputation of IP addresses in real-time. By pulling crowdsourced intelligence directly into the platform, users can identify risk levels and prevent potential attacks based on historical abuse data.

Key Features & Benefits

• Confidence Scoring: View a Confidence of Abuse percentage (0–100%) to instantly gauge the likelihood that an IP address is malicious.
• Comprehensive Metadata: Retrieve essential context, including Internet Service Provider (ISP), usage type, domain name, and country of origin.
• Reporting Forensics: Access a detailed history of how many times an IP has been reported and by how many distinct sources.
• Deep-Dive Analysis: Utilize the Top 20 Reporters view to see specific comments and malicious activity types associated with an indicator.
• Automated Intelligence: Streamline workflows by enabling Automatic Data Retrieval, ensuring enrichment data populates as soon as an analyst views an Address Indicator.

How it Works

The integration functions as a built-in tool within the ThreatConnect Enrichment tab. Once configured with a valid AbuseIPDB API key, the platform queries the AbuseIPDB database for any IP Address indicator.

Administrators can customize the Maximum Age of Results to ensure that only relevant, recent data is used for scoring, significantly reducing false positives during the investigation process.
