A powerful Python-based SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) tool that automatically detects malicious IP addresses from log files using AbuseIPDB threat intelligence and implements real-time blocking through Windows Firewall integration.
- AbuseIPDB Integration - Leverages real-time threat intelligence from AbuseIPDB's comprehensive database
- Multi-Factor Analysis - Evaluates IPs based on abuse confidence score, report count, user reports, and Tor network detection
- Smart Pattern Recognition - Automatically extracts IP addresses from various log file formats
- Trusted IP Whitelist - Protects critical infrastructure IPs from accidental blocking
- Real-Time Blocking - Instantly blocks malicious IPs through Windows Firewall (netsh)
- Comprehensive Logging - Detailed audit trail of all blocking actions with timestamps
- Batch Processing - Efficiently processes large volumes of IP addresses from log files
- Zero False Positives - Advanced filtering ensures legitimate traffic remains unblocked
- Log File Processing - Compatible with standard SIEM log formats
- Structured Logging - Machine-readable logs for SIEM platform integration
- Scalable Architecture - Designed for enterprise-level deployment
- Real-Time Monitoring - Continuous threat detection and response capabilities
- Language: Python 3.6+
- Threat Intelligence: AbuseIPDB API v2
- Network Security: Windows Firewall (netsh) integration
- Log Processing: Advanced regex pattern matching
- Data Management: Set-based deduplication for efficiency

Checking IP: 185.220.101.5
IP 185.220.101.5 is malicious. Taking action!
Blocked IP: 185.220.101.5 due to: Abuse confidence score > 90Extracted IPs: {'109.70.100.2', '198.98.51.189', '185.220.101.5', '192.42.116.175'}
Checking IP: 109.70.100.2
IP 109.70.100.2 is malicious. Taking action!
Blocked IP: 109.70.100.2 due to: Abuse confidence score > 90
Checking IP: 192.168.1.100
IP 192.168.1.100 is safe, no action needed.
