Abstract
In an example, first-tier Internet Protocol (IP) address reputation scores, including a first first-tier IP address reputation score associated with a first first-tier IP address group and a second first-tier IP address reputation score associated with a second first-tier IP address group, may be determined based upon a plurality of events. A second-tier IP address reputation score associated with a second-tier IP address group may be determined based upon the plurality of first-tier IP address reputation scores. The second-tier IP address group may include the first first-tier IP address group and the second first-tier IP address group. An IP address reputation profile may be generated based upon the first-tier IP address reputation scores and the second-tier IP address reputation score. Whether or not a request for content associated with a first IP address is fraudulent may be determined based upon the IP address reputation profile and the first IP address.
