Cybersecurity Use Cases for IP address data

  • Managed Detection and Response

    IP address data is a critical source for enriching log traffic for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR). Many MDR use cases activate Geolocation and Privacy Detection data (among other relevant datasets) to detect anomalies in traffic and high-risk alerts.

  • Security Operations Centers

    SOC and SOCaaS use IP address data to monitor traffic, login attempts, and identify malicious traffic. Many Security Operations Centers use IP to Geolocation, Privacy Detection data, and IP ownership data for better threat detection and security automation.

  • Cloud Security Posture Management

    CSPM uses IP address data to identify risks or misconfigurations within cloud-based systems. IP address data helps map assets and discover vulnerabilities so security teams can identify necessary improvements, enforce regulatory compliance, and improve cloud security.

  • Identity Access Management

    IAM needs IP address data to enforce regulatory compliance (such as GDPR), track audit logs, investigate incidents, identify rogue users, and many other use cases. Zero trust architecture uses Geolocation, Privacy Detection, Hosted Domains, ASN data, and other datasets to track domain and IP reputation and identify suspicious logins, among other use cases.

  • Vulnerability Management and Assessment

    IP address data is used to map assets and improve vulnerability detection for organizations. IPinfo’s data is also accurate enough to map adversarial infrastructure, such as bulletproof hosting companies, networks associated with cybercriminal activity, and other malicious infrastructure as they change IP ownership over time. Penetration Testing, Attack Surface Management, and Network Monitoring use Whois data, ASN data, IP to Geolocation, and a variety of other IP datasets to improve network visibility, map assets, and improve security automation.
