Hide Your IP Address with Anonymizer

Anonymizer offers solutions to hide your IP address which are often referred to as IP hiders. These IP hiders protect against the many threats that companies face when conducting online research or competitive intelligence. Some of these threats include IP cloaking, Web spoofing and IP blocking, all of which can be prevented with a good IP hider.

IP cloaking, or Web spoofing, is showing one version of a Web page to one site visitor and a completely different version to another visitor. Some enterprise site administrators use IP cloaking to keep their competitors from seeing accurate information on their Web site. If a competitor is trying to keep you from seeing what they are offering, an IP hider can help thwart the problem. The IP hider will mask your IP address, making it indistinguishable from any other IP address and allowing you to see the accurate content on a Web site.

IP blocking is a similar issue for competitive intelligence gathering. Many companies completely block their competitors from visiting their sites. When the Web server receives a page request, a script checks or sniffs the IP address of the user against a list of known competitor IP addresses. If a match is found, the server delivers an error message that may state "Access Denied". Therefore, it's important to hide your IP when conducting competitive intelligence. If your organization uses a quality IP hider, such as Anonymizer's Enterprise Chameleon or Enterprise Client Chameleon, there is no chance of competitors recognizing you. Your IP address will be continually changed and masked behind millions of other users' IP addresses.

Two effective IP hiders for enterprise-level protection are Anonymizer Enterprise Chameleon™ and Anonymizer Enterprise Client Chameleon™. Both of these hide your IP address, which makes recognition by your competitors impossible. Contact us to learn more about Anonymizer IP hider solutions.
