Spamhaus, the quintessential sentry of malicious IPs and rogue networks, has released a major update of its online tool.
IP and Domain Reputation Checker is the full name of the new tool by Spamhaus, replacing its old Blocklist Removal Center.
According to Spamhaus, the same form field can be used to check an email, IP address, or domain name and see whether it’s listed as a bad actor.
What else has changed?
- It’s mobile-friendly. You can easily search our data from a smartphone, tablet or desktop without any usability issues.
- One search field. IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses, domain names, email-addresses, and hash strings can all be searched from the same search field.
- Auto IP recognition. As mentioned, many users of the Checker are technical novices, so for ease of use, the user’s client IP address is automatically detected. If this IP address is listed on our reputation blocklists, the Checker will immediately advise them. For frequent users of the Checker, one can easily disable this feature.
