Re: Constant Abuse Reports / Borderline Spamming from RiskIQ

We’ve got a 24/7 NOC and respond to abuse reports in either real-time in as close to real-time as we can, I’d send 
another message if it went 24 hours without a reply too. We also have a ticket system that replies immediately so they 
know the e-mail went through, and we track it like a real company that does real things.

All abuse reports that we receive are dealt within 48 business hours. As far as that tweet is concerned, it’s pending 
for 16 days because they have been blocked from sending us any emails due to the sheer amount of emails they started 
sending and then our live support chats.

We send our abuse reports to, but we don’t spam them to every publicly available email address for an organisation, 
it isn’t difficult to lookup the Abuse POC for an IP or network and just because you do not get a response in 24 
hours does not mean you forward the same report to 10 other email addresses. Similarly twitter isn’t a place to 
report abuse either.

entire operation today as it's unworthy of being any part of the Internet community. ---rsk
