AlienVault Open Threat Exchange (OTX)
Open Threat Exchange is AT&T Cybersecurity's community threat-intelligence platform, now operated under the LevelBlue brand, where contributors publish "pulses" of malicious IPs, domains, hashes, and URLs that anyone can query. A live, unauthenticated GET against its IPv4 general-info endpoint returned a full 200 JSON response, and both that call and its OPTIONS preflight echoed the request's Origin in Access-Control-Allow-Origin, resolving cors to yes; an OTX-API-KEY is still needed for higher rate limits and pulse subscriptions. Signup, the API key, and the community feed itself are all free.
