Introduction
What is http:BL?
Http:BL is a way for website administrators to take advantage of the data generated by Project Honey Pot and keep malicious or suspicious IPs off their websites. The service works by publishing DNS records for IPs we have seen conducting suspicious or malicious behavior online. Website administrators can then use this data in order to restrict access to their web servers for these IPs.
Can anyone use http:BL?
You need to have an account and an access key in order to use http:BL. To be granted an access key you must be an active participant in Project Honey Pot. Qualifying as an active participant is easy: simply install a honey pot, donate an MX record, or refer people to the Project Honey Pot website. We operate on the community-based principle that those people who contribute to a service should be the ones who benefit from it.
