Abstract: A method and system for detecting and mitigating a malicious bot is disclosed. Address information is obtained from a third-party threat intelligence provider, the address information corresponding to network traffic that has been identified as malicious network traffic. Network traffic originating on a networked device is inspected in search of packets that correspond to the obtained address information. A check is performed to determine if a given one of the searched packets corresponds to an address associated with the address information and, responsive to the check indicating that the given one of the searched packets corresponds to the address associated with the address information, a managed router service is configured to mitigate the malicious network traffic.
