Geo Fencing & IP Blocking
What is geo fencing & ip blocking?
Geo fencing and IP blocking restrict access to your systems based on where a connection is coming from. Traffic from countries or IP ranges your business has no reason to receive connections from is automatically blocked.
Why it matters
A significant portion of cyberattack traffic originates from regions your business never does business with. Blocking that traffic at the perimeter reduces your exposure to automated attacks and unauthorized access attempts with minimal impact on legitimate users.
How we implement it
We configure geographic and IP-based access controls on your network perimeter and cloud services. We work with you to define which regions and IP ranges should be permitted and review those policies as your business needs change.
What your organization gets
Reduced Attack Surface
Block entire categories of malicious traffic before it reaches your systems.
Lower Noise
Fewer unauthorized access attempts means cleaner logs and fewer alerts to investigate.
Easy Implementation
Geo blocking is one of the simplest, highest-value controls to put in place.
Customizable
Policies are tailored to your business's actual geographic footprint.
Common questions
What does geo fencing do?
It blocks network traffic and login attempts from regions where you do not do business. If your organization operates in Florida, a login attempt from overseas has no legitimate reason to succeed.
Won't this cause problems when we travel?
No. Travel is accommodated by policy: tell us the trip, and access follows you. The fence exists to stop the millions of anonymous probes, not your people.
How much attack traffic does this remove?
A large share of automated attacks originate from a handful of regions. Blocking what has no business reaching you shrinks your exposed surface before other defenses even engage.
