What is a blackhole ?
See the wikipedia definition first 😉

For us, a blackhole(or Darknet) is a set of ip adresses directly connected to Internet, without any computer connected. All inbound traffic is not solicitated. We can mesure networks attack on internet in real time by this way.
Structure
Our plateforme is directly connected with the NICT in Japan, thanks to the collaboration with them.
