Real-time Proxy Detection database for security

Real-time Proxy Detection database for security often use proxies to hide their true location and spoof device fingerprints to commit click fraud, ad fraud, e-commerce transaction fraud, account takeover fraud, skewed analytics, unauthorized access, and more. Our Real-time Proxy detection reveals connections to open or anonymous proxies, VPNs, Tor nodes, cloud providers & data centers, botnets and residential proxies to help you prevent these risks.

Proxy detection can be used to check for a variety of indicators, including latency, which is higher when connecting via a proxy, as well as the number of requests per second and the number of IP addresses accessed by an individual. Modern security systems can also use a combination of browser configuration, network settings, operating system, device language, and time zone to create a unique user fingerprint and identify suspicious activities.
