Announcing API for Cloud Intel Atomic Indicators

The article announces the launch of a free API for Cloud Intel Atomic Indicators, which provides daily updated data on malicious IP addresses using Cloudflare infrastructure. The API returns a JSON list of observed malicious IPs and their connection counts for a specified date, and users can request a free API key by email. Future development plans include expanding the API to support malware object detection.

Announcing API for Cloud Intel Atomic Indicators Table of Contents We are excited to announce the launch of our new API for Cloud Intel Atomic Indicators, a tool designed to provide essential data on malicious IP addresses. This API is a step forward in our commitment to enhancing cybersecurity and is available free of charge. Behind the Scenes: Cloudflare Infrastructure⌗ Our API leverages the robust Cloudflare infrastructure, utilizing Cloudflare Workers for efficient handling of API requests, Cloudflare KV Store for secure key management, and Cloudflare R2 for reliable data storage. This setup ensures that the data is updated and accessible efficiently. Data Availability and API Usage⌗ The API provides data that is updated every 24 hours. While it’s not real-time, it ensures that users receive the most recent information within a 24-hour window. Making an API Request⌗ To access the data, users can make a simple API call as follows: curl -X GET \ 'https://cloudintel.himanshuanand.com/v1/maliciousip?date=MM-DD-YYYY' \ -H 'x-api-key: Your API Key ' \ -H 'x-email: Your Email ' Replace Your API Key and Your Email with your respective API key and email. Understanding the Response The API response is a JSON file, listing all observed malicious IP addresses within the specified date. Here’s an example of what the response might look like: { "IP": "192.0.2.1", "connections": 45000 }, { "IP": "203.0.113.5", "connections": 32000 } // more data Current Focus and Future Developments⌗ Currently, our API covers malicious IP addresses. We are actively working on extending its capabilities to include malware object detection. Get Your Free API Key⌗ Interested in using our API?
