# Security Blocklists
IP blocklists protect infrastructure by blocking malicious addresses.
## Recommended Lists
| Blocklist | Description | Source |
| ------ | ------ | ------ |
| **Data-Shield IPv4** | 9150+ IPs/day, European honeypot, updated 24h | [GitHub](https://github.com/duggytuxy/Data-Shield_IPv4_Blocklist) |
| **FireHOL IP Lists** | Aggregates 100+ sources: attacks, malware, C2 | [firehol.org](https://iplists.firehol.org/) |
## How They Work
**Data-Shield**

## Important Notes
> Blocklists are **complements** to security best practices, not replacements.
