What is Criminal IP?
Criminal IP is a cyber threat intelligence search engine developed by AI SPERA that provides searchable intelligence on malicious IPs, domains, and certificates. It aggregates threat data from honeypots, web crawlers, and partner intelligence feeds to build a publicly accessible reputation database. Because Criminal IP is publicly searchable, a listing is visible to anyone, including security analysts, enterprise procurement teams, and investors performing due diligence.
Why Criminal IP flags legitimate domains
- Criminal IP's crawlers found open ports, suspicious services, or malware indicators on your server
- Your domain's certificate or SSL configuration matched patterns used by phishing infrastructure
- A URL on your site was identified as part of a phishing or malware campaign
- Your IP appeared in honeypot attack logs aggregated by Criminal IP
- Partner threat intelligence feeds included your domain as a known-malicious indicator
What a listing means for your business
Criminal IP is both a public search engine and an API used by enterprise security tools. A listing means any person or system doing a reputation check on your domain can immediately see it flagged as malicious, directly impacting partner trust, customer confidence, and enterprise sales cycles.
