Threat-intelligence feed
Brute ForceLast verified Page fetched
Brute Force Blocker is a brute force threat-intelligence feed tracked by WhisperGraph as a FEED_SOURCE node. The Whisper Internet Directory publishes this page so security analysts and LLM agents can link to it as a stable record for Brute Force Blocker.
Brute Force Blocker is a long-running OpenBSD-derived community feed of IP addresses observed performing SSH brute-force attacks against participating hosts. The collection mechanism is a small reporting daemon that watches authentication logs and submits offending IPs to the central project; the published list is the union of all participants' reports over a rolling window. The feed has a reputation for low false positives because the contributing population skews toward administrators of internet-exposed BSD and Linux servers — the exact environments where SSH brute force is most disruptive. It is indexed here as a stable, decade-old record for SSH abuse research.
FEED_SOURCE node confirmed. WhisperGraph carries this feed under the same category (Brute Force) as the editorial entry above. The graph identifier bruteforceblocker matches the live f.id property.
Live indicator listings: not yet available. WhisperGraph's LISTED_INedge is virtual and not enumerable from the feed side — there is no query-tractable way today to fetch the IPs and hostnames listed in this feed without first visiting every candidate indicator. Indicator-anchored queries work in the opposite direction (see the Cypher snippet below) and the directory's individual IP and host pages surface their feed memberships individually. Per-feed enumeration (an indicator count and sample of representative indicators) is on the roadmap.
Look up which threat feeds list a given IP — the indicator-anchored query that powers the threat card:
MATCH (ip:IPV4 {name: $ip})-[:LISTED_IN]->(f:FEED_SOURCE)
WHERE f.name = "Brute Force Blocker"
WITH f
MATCH (f)-[:BELONGS_TO]->(c:CATEGORY)
RETURN f.name AS feed, c.name AS categoryVerify the feed's graph-side identity directly:
MATCH (f:FEED_SOURCE {name: "Brute Force Blocker"})
OPTIONAL MATCH (f)-[:BELONGS_TO]->(c:CATEGORY)
RETURN f.id AS id, f.name AS name, c.name AS categoryOr query Whisper from your own LLM workflow via the Whisper MCP server.
