An overview of the services offered for free to the community by Team Cymru#

MORE-IP 2026 digest Program Adjacent pick 27–28 May 2026

Massimiliano Stucchi — Team Cymru

  • Why: Security telemetry is expensive; free, reputable, community-funded services are an easy adoption decision, and an inventory talk is precisely the kind of immediately actionable content operator digests should surface. For the PM's security remit, this is a shortcut to knowing what's available without procurement.
  • What: Exactly what the abstract says: a survey of Team Cymru's no-cost community services. Team Cymru is well known for free offerings to the operator community — historically including bogon filtering/route-server projects, ASN/IP ownership lookups, and DDoS-response assistance — though the specific set covered in this talk is not enumerated in the program. (from abstract only)
  • How: N/A — this is a services overview, not a research contribution.
  • Where applicable: Any network operator, of any scale. The main caveat is verifying current service terms; "free to the community" services have their own qualification and fair-use processes.
