Threat Intelligence by Webroot BrightCloud®

Threat intelligence is a separately licensed subscription service in Airlock Gateway that provides predefined lists of IP addresses with the purpose of allowing one or more categories of unwanted IP address origins to be blocked from accessing the protected applications. An IP address may be included in several categories.

In case you want to define custom IP address lists, please refer to Submenu – IP Address Lists.
