Release notes # Enhanced support for IP addresses Abi Tyas Tunggal January 19, 2021 Our *IP Addresses* feature helps you manage your cyber risk by providing an IP-centric view of your organization and its vendors’ attack surfaces. With *IP Addresses*, UpGuard automatically finds the IP addresses and ranges associated with the DNS records of an organization’s domains, as well as any IPs or ranges that are added manually. In the coming weeks, we’ll further enhance this feature by attributing ownership of IP ranges based on WHOIS data. If an IP address is associated with at least one domain, UpGuard has already been scanning it during our domain-based analysis of security issues, misconfigurations, and vulnerabilities. As you know, this analysis then feeds into our scoring algorithm which gives the domain a security rating. As part of this release, we now scan IP addresses that don’t have a DNS record for open ports and other security issues and give those IPs a security rating. Just as you can drill into the underlying issues associated with a scored domain, we surface the underlying security issues associated with these IP addresses, and what we recommend you do to improve your security posture. The other major change we’ve made is support for IP ranges. When you add an IP range, UpGuard will periodically scan through the range to discover any new assets. This is an excellent way to reduce the risks associated with shadow IT services as we’ll uncover potentially unknown assets during these scans. Clicking into an individual IP address will show you the owner, associate IP range, country, autonomous system (AS), autonomous system number (ASN), and any associated domains or risks. Likewise, by clicking into an IP range, you’ll see the owner, country, and number of IPs in the range, as well as any detected IP addresses or domains. Both views can be filtered by services, IP owner, ASN, or IP country. *IP Addresses* is currently a beta feature. If you or your team would like to test *IP Addresses* prior to its official release, please contact us at .

Using templates is a great way to save time, ensure consistency and uniformity across teams and processes, by reducing mistakes and errors caused by copying and pasting text across documents. *Templates* are available for customers on the Professional bundle and up or as an add-on on lower plans.
