Industry-leading
Residential Proxy Detection

Our Proxy Detection API provides critical contextual data needed to accurately identify traffic tied to residential IP proxy networks, VPNs, and the darknets.

Leverage Contextual IP Insights for Accurate Risk Assessments

Digital Element's unique IP Characteristics (IPC) database identifies IP addresses that display anomalous characteristics, offering you vital context to quantify potential threats.

With IPC’s deterministic IP metadata, security teams can tap into historical observations, including activity, location, range, and persistence to make more informed decisions, protecting your organization from account takeovers, ad fraud, and unauthorized access.

We know, for instance, that proxied IP addresses are shared by clients all over the world, so they are likely to be seen in multiple locations. That’s an important insight; if an IP address remains consistently associated with a specific location for an extended period, it is less likely to be a proxy.

Location

The number of locations an IP address has been observed

Persistence

The length of time an IP address has been in the same location

Activity

The number of devices that have been connected to an IP address

Range

The range of distances between IP address observations
