What is DShield Recommended Block List

DShield Recommended Block List is the SANS Internet Storm Center's curated set of network blocks its analysts recommend blocking outright, derived from DShield's crowd-sourced firewall-log submission network — one of the longest-running distributed intrusion-detection data-sharing projects on the internet. Inclusion requires sustained, corroborated abuse evidence across many contributing sensors rather than a single report, which keeps the false-positive rate low enough that the list is a common default-block reference in perimeter firewall configurations. It has been a fixture of the SANS/DShield ecosystem for over two decades. It is indexed here as one of the most established general-purpose block-list references available.
