Blacklist

Why are blacklists important?

It is both cheap and easy for criminals to change both their IP addresses and their Device IDs, evading the real-time protection offered by most blacklists.

Additionally, only data providers with massive, real-time databases and advanced machine learning capabilities, can identify fraudulent devices and IP addresses quickly and efficiently, to deliver meaningful real-time protection.

Similarly, many fraud providers blacklist only a couple of bot signatures, as developing the required database for bot signatures requires massive resources.
