Solving the Superman Problem: Observe offers GeoIP

Detecting unauthorized VPN usage through stolen credentials is a key concern addressed by the Improbable Travel search tool, which evaluates login events based on time stamps and IP addresses to identify suspicious activity, such as movements faster than possible by plane. Observe customers have long utilized this method alongside Azure Active Directory and Cloudflare data, and with new integrations like IP Geolocation powered by IPinfo.io, the process is made more accessible through native mapping visualizations. The challenge lies in minimizing false positives, which often involve traveling salespeople or DevOps engineers whose network changes mimic unauthorized access patterns. Strategies to refine the search include filtering out known matches, comparing authentication logs with two-factor authentication data, and considering GeoIP data accuracy when calculating travel speed. Visualization tools such as location dots and choropleths provide insights into login activity, enabling organizations to monitor geographic patterns and respond to unauthorized access. Geographic enrichment can also aid in compliance with regional business regulations and enhance threat intelligence by mapping the origins of potential threats.
