Apr 21, 2011Damon Billian
Summary
This post introduces the ability for users to query individual visitor IP addresses through the Cloudflare API. This feature allows users to gain insights into traffic origins, identify potential attacks by analyzing IP hit frequency, and proactively add malicious IPs to the Block List via the Threat Control panel. This directly contributes to the community-driven threat intelligence by enabling users to take action against identified threats.
