Abstract
Embodiments disclosed include methods and apparatus for detecting a reputation of infrastructure associated with potentially malicious content. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The processor is configured to identify an Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with potentially malicious content and define each row of a matrix by applying a different subnet mask from a plurality of subnet masks to a binary representation of the IP address to define that row of the matrix. The processor is further configured to provide the matrix as an input to a machine learning model, and receive, from the machine learning model, a score associated with a maliciousness of the IP address.
