How Effective Is IP Blocking at Stopping Unwanted Traffic? or Can IP Blocking Really Protect Your Web

Kinda depends on your setup. If you’re just blocking IPs manually, yeah, it’s exhausting.

But tools like OSSEC or Suricata can auto-block based on behavior, not just IPs. Way more effective.

Also, keep an eye on your logs. Sometimes the same attacker slips up and reuses an IP.
