Introducing IP Intelligence to control unwanted traffic

Ngrok has introduced enhanced security features for protecting online endpoints with the addition of IP Intelligence to their Traffic Policy management system. This feature provides real-time information about IP addresses accessing user endpoints, including geolocation data, autonomous system information, and IP categories, which are collections of IP addresses identified from public sources. The system allows users to filter traffic and make informed decisions to manage access, such as blocking Tor traffic, specific countries, or unwanted entities like known bots and scrapers. The IP Intelligence data is dynamically updated, reducing the need for users to maintain lists and allowing them to focus on managing traffic efficiently. Ngrok's IP Intelligence also aids in mitigating threats, as demonstrated by its ability to handle a significant DDoS attack by identifying and redirecting traffic from known proxy IPs. The service is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing Traffic Policy systems, offering users granular control to safeguard their services against various online threats, while ensuring legitimate traffic is not disrupted.
