Static databases have a fatal flaw: they treat every IP individually. If a hacker rotates their IP address by one digit, static tools see it as "clean."
CandycornDB analyzes the entire neighborhood. If 192.168.1.5 is bad, we automatically flag the surrounding subnet. We block the hacker's next IP before they even use it.
