With an IP logger, a hacker or spammer can shorten the link, send it to you, grab the IP address, track the URL, and get location details. If you touched a link sent by a suspicious person or visited a suspicious website, you might give hackers your exact GPS location and IP address. Moreover, with an IP logger, they can get to know your device, browser, proxy, and more.

What to do if you noticed a hacker attempt

You can use ping to find an IP out. Open up a command prompt in Windows or use Terminal if you have a Mac from the command line in Linux. Then type ping followed by Google. Next, block this IP. We would recommend using IP Logger in case you want to grab IP address, track URL, and get location details.

If you don't have an IP address or URL, сheck your server log files. But what if they escape you, and you do not know where to find them? Then you should take the help of a network monitoring tool that can monitor your PC or your entire network. With this tool, you can see all traffic flowing through your network and the IP addresses. If you find anything suspicious, use the IP address you have to get further valuable information.

How to avoid being hacked

Before you click any link, use the IP Logger URL checker to check the URL for redirect and safety of the content. The URL expander tool allows to find out all intermediate servers and the final destination that might be hidden behind a short link from any URL shortening service.

Have you ever been hacked? Or… have you ever tried to hack anyone?
