How accurate is IP geolocation?

IP geolocation accuracy varies based on the type of IP address. Static IPs often provide city-level precision, while dynamic or mobile IPs may offer regional accuracy. Our service includes confidence metrics to help assess reliability.

Why might my IP location appear different from my actual location?

Differences can occur due to VPN usage, proxy servers, mobile network routing, or ISP infrastructure. This is normal and doesn't necessarily indicate a security issue.

What security information is provided?

Our IP lookup includes threat detection for VPN, proxy, TOR exit nodes, and other security indicators. This helps identify potential risks and suspicious network activity.

Is this IP lookup tool free to use?

Yes, our IP lookup tool is completely free to use. You can look up any IPv4 or IPv6 address without registration or payment.

How often is the IP data updated?

Our IP geolocation and network data is updated regularly from multiple authoritative sources. The data freshness is indicated in the results to help you assess reliability.

Hazard Report
The Hazard Report is BigDataCloud’s consolidated view of IP address risk. It blends reactive signals (blocklists, past abuse evidence, known anonymiser detections) with proactive indicators such as the hosting likelihood model to assess the chance of non‑human or malicious use.
Reactive signals: Third‑party abuse/blacklist checks and previously observed malicious behaviour, plus detectable VPN/proxy/TOR indicators.
Proactive indicators: Whether the IP is in hosting/data‑centre infrastructure (no “eyeball” user), helping surface high‑risk traffic even without prior incidents.
Use this composite view to inform allow/deny rules, step‑up verification, throttling or rate‑limits, and strengthen zero‑day defence.
