- How much traffic are you prepared to handle with this site?
Also, do you plan to support IPv6?
by anonymousiam - Great questions. It’s built on cloudflare so it should scale. Every endpoint is dual-stack today.by o2k
- Quite interesting, but what is your selling point vs say ipinfo.io?
To maintain this sort of service you need access to vast scale of intelligence. Do you have it?
by jesterson - After I read your question I thought other people would wonder the same thing and I already had some ideas about greynoise. I'm going to go ahead and add this to the site for other people. Thanks. https://tunnelmind.ai/compareby o2k
- I work for IPinfo. We do not provide reputation scoring, by the way. Reputation is such a subjective matter.
It would be easy for us to make a very quick sales if we start offering reputation scoring, but we, as a company, would rather support fraud detection, threat intelligence and bot detection services with raw data from us.
In fact, the 1400 servers we operate for internet measurement all have very sophisticated honeypots baked into them, but still, we have not productized that data. In our experience of the fast-moving world of IP addresses, reputation scoring, even with the best intentions, can introduce some downsides. We can do many things which will be better than most things out there, but we have to really balance the consequences of our product.
by reincoder - Reputation is subjective and subject to abuse. You need cold hard facts. Intelligence. Also, don't talk BGP to people you don't know and don't forget to maintain your human network. Your regional RIR can help with this.by coretx
- hmmm. TunnelMind is not actually in the routing path or peering with anyone, observes route origin + RPKI to judge whether a destination's routing checks out, alongside other signals.by o2k
