Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for detecting malicious activities. One of the methods includes obtaining a collection of user event logs or receiving user events through real-time feeds; using data from the user event logs/feeds to determine IP address properties for individual IP addresses and IP address ranges; and for each incoming event, updating the IP address properties for the corresponding IP address and IP prefix properties.
