NetBlocks is a global internet monitor and watchdog that provides real-time measurement and analysis of internet connectivity, cybersecurity, and digital governance.
The platform utilizes a distributed network of probes and advanced data analytics to detect and document internet shutdowns, social media restrictions, and cyberattacks on critical infrastructure. Its primary services include the Internet Observatory, which offers live telemetry on network reachability and routing metrics, and the Cost of Shutdown Tool (COST) -also in our directory-.
Tip: this is not exactly an online tool as per other tools in this directory; Netblocks provides one or more daily reports on selected internet connectivity facts on countries around the globe, and as such, is more a source of live information.
