What is CrowdSec?
CrowdSec is a threat intelligence platform designed to detect and block malicious IP addresses. It collects attack signals from many security engines to build IP reputation data and generate firewall blocklists. The platform provides live exploit intelligence, primarily for SOC teams, helping them to defend against cyber threats and protect their networks. Security professionals use CrowdSec to identify and block attacking IPs at their firewalls using curated threat feeds. They can investigate IP reputations and discover which vulnerabilities are being exploited in real-time. The platform helps users preemptively block exploitation attempts and gain visibility into malicious IPs, which can reduce security alert volumes.
