Introducing VPN detection

We’re excited to announce VPN detection as a new feature. This is available to everybody!

Until now we were detecting abusers, attackers, bogons, cloud providers (datacenters), public proxies, relays, and also tor exit nodes. Starting today, we are adding VPN IP addresses detection to the list. Our VPN dataset contains several millions of IP addresses updated daily.

The new field is named is_vpn and appears under the security object of API responses we return.

As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts on this new feature as well as what you'd like us to build next! Leave us a reaction or feedback below.
