Residential proxies evaded IP reputation checks in 78% of 4B sessions
Researchers warn that residential proxies used to route malicious traffic are a big problem for IP reputation systems, as there is no clear distinction between attackers and legitimate users. This occurs because residential proxies are too short-lived, uninvolved, or systematically rotated, preventing defense systems from cataloging them in time. Cybersecurity intelligence platform GreyNoise determined this after examining a […]
