Analyst Q&A

What this signal answers

Three questions every analyst asks before acting on this signal.

What it detects01

What does 'Geolocation Consistency' indicate?

It indicates that the observed geolocation of the IP matches its registered geolocation, suggesting a stable and expected geographic placement for the infrastructure at the time of observation.

Why it matters02

How is this different from geolocation stability?

Geolocation consistency is a snapshot-based signal that reflects alignment at a single point in time, whereas geolocation stability requires historical observations over time.

How analysts use it03

How should analysts interpret this label?

This label provides a safe-bias contextual signal. On its own it does not indicate benign activity, but it helps reduce suspicion when no other geolocation anomalies are present.
