Spamhaus integration

Spamhaus is an integrated data source (a Module) in UserSearch. It supplies IP and domain reputation intelligence together with malware-URL blocklists, letting you check whether an address, domain, or URL is associated with spam, malware distribution, or other malicious activity as part of a Threat search.

What Spamhaus is

Spamhaus maintains widely used reputation and blocklist data covering IP addresses, domains, and URLs. In UserSearch, this data is surfaced through the Spamhaus Module so you can look up an indicator and see how Spamhaus classifies it, without leaving your search.

Spamhaus is a specific integrated third party. It is one data source among the Modules UserSearch queries on your behalf.

What data it returns

Spamhaus contributes reputation and blocklisting signals for the indicator you look up.

Draft — awaiting confirmation

The precise fields Spamhaus returns in UserSearch, its listing categories, coverage scope, and update frequency are not yet confirmed for this documentation. Expect reputation status for IPs and domains plus malware-URL blocklist matches, but treat exact return values, thresholds, and freshness as unverified until confirmed.

Which search types and Modules use it

Spamhaus powers the Threat search type. When you run a Threat search on a supported indicator, the Spamhaus Module is one of the data sources you can query.

Spamhaus may also be included when you run OneScan, the Module that queries several data sources at once, in a search type where Spamhaus is available.

How to access it in UserSearch

1. Start a Threat search.
2. Enter your indicator (for example an IP address or domain).
3. In the data-source selection, choose the Spamhaus Module — or select OneScan to include Spamhaus alongside other data sources in a single run.
4. Review the Spamhaus results, attributed to the Spamhaus data source, in your Search Results.

Draft — awaiting confirmation

Spamhaus is an established reputation and blocklist provider, but its behaviour inside UserSearch — including whether lookups are passive, how current the listings are, and how completely results map to Spamhaus’s own datasets — has not yet been verified for this page. Corroborate any Spamhaus finding against the source before relying on it for a decision.
