CandycornDB

CandycornDB reduces false positives by verifying threats via ASN reputation and Subnet neighbors, not just blacklists.

Don't burn your
good customers.

Aggressive scoring kills growth. IPQS often flags entire residential ranges because of one bad actor.

The Surgical Approach

We use Subnet Inference to isolate bad actors without banning the innocent neighbors next door. Keep your conversion rates high while stopping the fraud.
