Product review
ipregistry proxy detection review
Ipregistry combines security indicators with network, carrier and location context in one IP response. Proxy, VPN, Tor and relay fields support a structured enrichment step at a protected action. The response is address intelligence; account history and the handling of unknown fields remain part of the application evaluation.

What the score means
The 8.0 out of 10 score is an editorial assessment under the same 42-criterion, seven-category framework. The rubric covers anonymizer coverage, false-positive discipline, freshness, verdict depth, integration, device corroboration and access. The published scale runs from 0 to 10.
The award and score are distinct. Read all criteria and relative weights and verify the required signal and integration for your traffic.
How to evaluate it
Compare known proxy and legitimate shared-network IPs. Log which security fields are populated, the observation window, unknown cases and the action your application would take.
Developer access and documentation
Create developer access and inspect permitted IPs through the documented security fields.

FAQ
Does the free credit balance include security fields?
The pricing page says every plan provides the full response. Confirm the account allowance before a production rollout.
Is there a graded fraud score?
The security fields are structured classifications. Keep them separate from a provider-specific fraud score when normalizing your internal model.
What does one credit buy?
The pricing page defines one lookup as one request and one credit.
