Abstract
Exemplary embodiments provide for rate limiting access to data endpoints which includes a processor configured to monitor network traffic between one or more devices on a first network and a second network. The processor may receive a first data endpoint request from one of the one or more devices and compare the first data endpoint request to a ledger of one or more data endpoints. The ledger may have a rate limit associated with the one or more data endpoints which defines a threshold number of requests allowed for the one or more data endpoints. In response to the first data endpoint request matching one or more of the data endpoints on the ledger, the processor may block the first data endpoint request when the data endpoint request exceeds the threshold number of requests allowed for the matching data endpoint on the ledger.
