https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBL%20Index | The CBL Index is a ratio between the number of IP addresses in a given IP subnet (Subnetwork) to
the number of CBL (Composite Blocking List) listings in the subnet. It may
be used to measure how "clean" (of compromised computers) a given subnet is.
The higher the number is, the "cleaner" the subnet.
The CBL index ma... |
