Identify users hiding behind VPNs, Proxies or the Tor network to prevent fraud and abuse.

Modern hackers are more sophisticated than ever, hiding their true identity using proxy and VPN connections to commit fraud and other malicious activities online. The best way to combat this is with a solution that detects these users and enables websites to take the appropriate action.

VPN detection API documentation uses multiple methods to determine if a user is using a VPN, including looking at the discrepancy between the actual browser time zone and the geographic location of the server where they are connecting. In addition, VPN detection utilises databases that contain information about known proxy servers and VPN providers. Cross-matching an IP address with these databases allows the API to accurately identify whether a user is using a VPN.

Understanding VPN Detection API Documentation

The API also identifies potential fraud behavior by analyzing network patterns and traffic behaviors. These are used to match the IP address against a database of known fraudulent activity, enabling the API to accurately identify users who may be attempting to hide their identity by using a VPN or proxy.

The API is language-agnostic and can be integrated with websites, apps and web services in a variety of programming languages, including Python, JavaScript, Java, PHP and Ruby. The API can be accessed via RESTful API calls and is designed to enable developers to integrate the solution quickly, easily and securely. The API is available with the free trial version of SEON, so developers can try it out and see how it can improve their fraud prevention strategies.
