ISC Feature of the Week: Suspicious Domains
Overview
After some maintenance downtime, the Suspicious Domains lists at https://isc.sans.edu/tools/suspicious_domains.html have been re-launched. This project was developed by handler Jason Lam and is an effort to assemble weighted lists of suspicious domains based on tracking, malware and other sources.
