Immunet By The Map

Saturday, July 17, 2010 at 12:42PM |

As the Immunet community approaches almost 400,000 members we wanted to come up with a cool way to show where all of you are located and the impact that you are having on making the Internet just a little bit safer. What better way than to show it on a map?

As many of you will recall, data mining is one of Immunet's strengths, and one of the approaches that sets us apart from our competitors. Due to the way that Immunet was built, we have the ability to examine global threat data very easily and make this presentable at a very high level.

Adam O'Donnell (the smart PhD who helped to build Immunet) and I overlayed this data onto a map and what you see below is a geographical representation of viruses that Immunet BLOCKED in just a one week period at the beginning of July.

It's pretty amazing to us when we can see how many threats Immunet is blocking around the world. It should definitely make all of us feel like we're doing something good in being part of this community. Immunet just keeps getting stronger as more of you join and that will only continue to make it more effective.

Keep in mind that this represents only where threats were blocked. The Immunet community is much larger than that and of course not all of you see viruses every day!

Are up to date automatically done?
Because each time I click on up date it shows no up date available
