Batch VPN Checker
Check multiple IP addresses at once for VPN, proxy, or Tor usage. Enter up to 100 IP addresses separated by commas, spaces, or line breaks.
About Batch VPN Checker
Our Batch VPN Checker tool allows you to check multiple IP addresses simultaneously for VPN, proxy, or Tor usage. This is particularly useful for:
- Network Administrators: Monitor your network for unauthorized VPN usage
- Security Analysts: Identify potentially suspicious connections
- Researchers: Analyze datasets of IP addresses for anonymity patterns
- Website Owners: Understand your visitor demographics and access patterns
Best Practices
- Formatting: You can enter IP addresses separated by commas, spaces, tabs, or line breaks.
- Limits: While our tool supports up to 100 IPs in a single batch, consider processing smaller batches of 20-50 IPs for optimal performance.
- Save Results: Use the Export as CSV/JSON options to download and save your results for future reference or analysis.
- Share Results: For small batches (10 IPs or fewer), you can share the results link with colleagues.
Understanding the Results
The batch results provide several key indicators:
- VPN Services: Commercial or private VPN providers that mask the user's real IP address.
- Proxy Servers: Intermediate servers that relay web requests, potentially hiding the original IP.
- Tor Exit Nodes: Endpoints of the Tor anonymity network, known for providing anonymous browsing.
- Hosting/Datacenter: Server IPs from datacenters rather than residential ISPs. These may not always indicate VPN usage but are often used for proxy services.
- Confidence Score: A percentage indicating how confident our system is in the detection result.
Note: No detection method is 100% accurate. VPN and proxy technologies evolve constantly, and new services may not be in our database yet.
Security & Compliance
Organizations often need to detect anonymous connections for several legitimate purposes:
- Fraud Prevention: Identify potentially suspicious sign-ups or transactions coming from known VPN/proxy IPs.
- Geo-restriction Compliance: Ensure users aren't circumventing geographical restrictions on content or services that are subject to licensing agreements.
- Advanced Threat Detection: Monitor for unusual access patterns or logins from anonymous networks that might indicate compromise attempts.
Research & Analysis
- Traffic Analysis: Understand what percentage of your website visitors are using anonymizing services.
- Security Research: Identify patterns in anonymized traffic for threat intelligence.
- Network Monitoring: Track VPN/proxy usage within corporate networks to enforce security policies.
