<TL;DR>

DNS-BLM is a tool that monitors block lists (currently using VirusTotal) to check if your domains are flagged as malicious, and notifies you if they are.

It's the first project I did, so feedback is highly appreciated!

Hey there ๐Ÿ‘‹,

Thanks for looking by! I want to tell you about my first little project.

It's called DNS-BLM (DNS Block List Monitoring). It basically does what it's named after. It monitors your domains and notifies you, if your domain is listed as suspicious or malicious on VirusTotal.

The whole project started after one of my domains got flagged. Since I had this problem with another domain a year earlier, I wanted a tool which tells me when something like this happens. And a few sleepless nights and weeks of procrastination later, here we are.

To run, you need an SMTP Server as well as a VirusTotal API Key.

If you wonder how to get such a Key, I wrote a little wiki post about it : [Click Me]

That's basically it.

Since this is my first project, I would be happy to get some feedback. Is there something missing in the Docs/Readme? Let me know!

So, have fun monitoring your Domains!
