Searching whois Databases
To get whois information about a particular address, you can click on any address
and select a particular whois database, like American Registry for Internet Numbers
(ARIN) at http://www.arin.net. The response to such a query for IP address
66.236.16.52 is shown in Figure 6 11.
This information is very important for incident response. This is usually the first
step to finding out the owner of the attacking IP address and his/her contact number.
After finding this information, you can contact the owner to stop bad guys from probing
your network.
