# Geolocation Risk

Abi Tyas Tunggal April 29, 2021

*Geolocation Risk* lets you discover and drill down into the geographies that your infrastructure and your vendors’ infrastructure is operating in. It’s similar to [*Fourth Parties*](https://help.upguard.com/en/articles/4491844-what-is-concentration-risk) but focused on geographies instead of fourth-parties.

Monitoring *Geolocation Risk* is a great way to understand whether data is being hosted in different countries and what data and privacy laws may be in place to protect it.

It’s also a great way to keep track of what countries your data may be stored in. This is particularly important for organizations in regulated industries like financial services or healthcare who may have regulatory requirements that dictate what countries data can be stored in.

*Geolocation Risk* information is available in the [*BreachSight Executive Summary*](https://help.upguard.com/en/articles/3883000-what-is-in-the-upguard-breachsight-executive-summary-report), [*Vendor Risk Executive Summary*](https://help.upguard.com/en/articles/3882997-what-is-in-the-upguard-vendor-risk-executive-summary-report), *Vendor Summary*, and the [*Vendor Risk Report*](https://help.upguard.com/en/articles/4379472-how-to-generate-a-vendor-risk-report).

*Geolocation Risk* is currently in beta, if you would like us to enable it on your account please [contact us](mailto:support@upguard.com).

### Other fixes and improvements

* Changed names of *Concentration Risk* and *Supply Chain* to *Fourth Parties* to improve consistency across the product and to better reflect what the feature does
* Improved the subject line of invitation emails making it even easier for new users to get started
* Removed the register a domain button from *Typosquatting*
* Owned IP ranges with no active IP addresses are now shown in your or your vendors’ *IP Addresses*
* IP addresses that are part of an owned IP range and are discovered through a DNS record will now be labelled as *Owned* and *DNS* rather than only one
