Managing the network of a small university I found out a couple services which helped us (their basic versions are free as in beer and are alternative to more known commercial services, hope not to spam):
* shadowserver: they notice us bad connections coming from our network, so we can identify bad clients;
* abuseipdb: they keep a list of bad IPs you can filter on your firewall (in my case it is a Linux machine, which loads the IPs using ipset), you can also report them bad IPs using fail2ban.
Hope it may be of help.
