Detecting your IP address...

What Is an IP Address?

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique numerical label assigned to every device connected to a network. Think of it as your device's digital address that allows it to send and receive data across the internet.

How It Works

When you visit a website, your device sends a request using your IP address. The website's server receives this request and sends the data back to your IP. It's like sending a letter — you need both a return address (your IP) and a destination address (the website's IP) for the communication to work.

Public IP

Your unique address on the internet, assigned by your ISP. It's how websites and services identify your connection.

Private IP

Used within your local network (home/office). Devices on your network use private IPs to communicate with each other.

IPv4

The traditional format with 4 groups of numbers (e.g., 192.168.1.1). Limited to about 4.3 billion addresses.

IPv6

The newer format with 8 groups of hexadecimal numbers. Provides virtually unlimited addresses for the growing internet.

Why Knowing Your IP Matters

Your IP address plays a crucial role in your online experience and security

Security Awareness

Understanding your IP helps you recognize potential security threats. Cybercriminals can use your IP to target attacks, so knowing what information is exposed helps you take protective measures.

Online Privacy

Your IP reveals your approximate location and ISP. Using VPNs or proxies can mask your IP, enhancing privacy. Knowing your IP helps you verify if privacy tools are working correctly.

Network Troubleshooting

When experiencing connectivity issues, knowing your IP is essential for diagnosing problems. IT support often needs this information to help resolve network-related issues.

Information about port scanning

Port scanning is a technique used to identify open ports and services on a networked device. Common ports include:

  • Port 80 - HTTP (Web Traffic)
  • Port 443 - HTTPS (Secure Web)
  • Port 22 - SSH (Secure Shell)
  • Port 21 - FTP (File Transfer)
  • Port 25 - SMTP (Email)

Note: Port scanning should only be performed on systems you own or have permission to test.
