There are many types of IP threats to your business, but the most prevalent are Remote Access Trojans and Phishing. This article outlines some of the best ways to protect your IP.

Keep reading for more information! In addition, you'll learn about Insider Threats, Remote Access Trojans, and Trojans/Malware. If your business has multiple IPs, there are many ways to protect them.

If you want to keep your data private and prevent cyberattacks, you must first understand how the IP works and protect yourself. An IP address is public information available to everyone, and it is easy for anyone to find your IP address.

Let's cut right to the chase: a static IP address for a business is an internet address that does not change. A static IP address, like a physical street address, can tell other computers or servers on the internet where a particular machine is situated or connected to the internet.

ARIN is one of the 5 RIRs (Regional Internet Registries) responsible for the management and distribution of the Internet number resources known as IP Addresses (IPv4 and IPv6) and ASNs. ARIN serves the region comprised of the United States, Canada, and many Caribbean and North Atlantic islands. ARIN is a nonprofit organization found in 1997. The primary function of ARIN is the registration of IP addresses and ASNs to ensure global uniqueness. Registration service includes allocation. assignment, and transfer of all Internet number resources. ARIN assigns IPv4, IPv6 and ASN numbers to governments, universities, ISPs, and for-profit organizations.

IANA is a standards organization owned by ICANN responsible for global allocation of IP Addresses and ASNs, management of DNS root zones, and protocol assignments. In regards to IP number management, IANA is primarily responsible for allocating a pool of unallocated IP blocks to RIRs according to the global policy to ensure fair allocation of IP addresses across the regions.

When you connect to the Internet, your ISP assigns an IP address that you can use to communicate with the rest of the world. Hiding your IP address blocks others from detecting your geolocation, access websites blocked by your government, and work around a banned IP address. However, hiding an IP address does not block advertisers from tracking you or stay anonymous online.

The Internet is a part of our lives, and can no longer live without it. We use it to check our daily weather forecast, read morning news briefs, trade stocks, and listen to our favorite music on Spotify. What makes the World Wide Web possible is domain names, and ICANN is the organization that manages them.

Anyone who needs IP addresses can register them through RIRs (ARIN for North America), and the ownership information will become public. An IP address is a public information anyone can look up, and it can be used to find the geolocation of a host.

An Autonomous System (AS) is a large network that has a common routing policy used to serve a set of IP prefixes. An AS is assigned to a single organization and is connected to multiple ASes to route IP packets in a redundant manner. An AS is assigned a 16-bit or 32-bit number (ASN) by the IANA to Internet Service Providers (ISPs), governments, universities, and enterprises.

A RIR (or Regional Internet Registry) is a nonprofit organization that allocates Internet Numbers which is comprised of IPv4 Addresses, IPv6 Addresses, and ASN (Autonomous System Numbers) within their respective regions. An IP address is a globally unique number that is assigned to computing devices to communicate with each other within a network (or Internet). ASN is a group of one or more IP prefixes that are used to define routing policy. With IP Address and ASN, IP packets are routed from one IP address to another regardless of where they are located within the world. There are 5 RIRs in the world, and their serving regions:
