Abstract:

Embodiments are disclosed for a method for identifying network risk. The method includes determining that a computing device has created a new connection to a network. Additionally, the method includes determining the public internet protocol (public IP) address of the exit point used by the network. Further, the method includes determining a reputation rating of the network based on the public IP address of the exit point. The method also includes providing a notification indicating the reputation rating of the network.
