Can I opt-out of Censys scans?
Censys scans help the scientific community accurately study the Internet. The data is sometimes used to detect security problems and to inform operators of vulnerable systems so that they can fixed. If you opt-out of the research, you might not receive these important security notifications.
However, if you wish to opt-out, you can configure your firewall to drop traffic from the subnets we use for the measurements:
- 198.108.66.0/23
- 192.35.168.0/23
We do not remove results from Censys, but if you have blocked these subnets, the results will automatically be pruned out.
