Which policy strategy should I use?
Allow All applies no blocking rules. Normal is recommended for most use cases. Aggressive blocks all anonymized traffic and carries a higher risk of false positives. Custom (Pro) gives access to all standard options plus more granular assessment attribute-level configuration.

Do you have a confidence score or last seen date?
Spur operates on a "high confidence" only model to reduce the likelihood of false positives ever making it into our data. Our mentality is that our customers should trust us to decide if something is true rather than providing an arbitrary score to constantly adjust higher or lower. Every API request or Monocle session provides the latest true information for that moment in time. On-prem solutions are updated at their purchased cadence (daily or real-time). We actively purge any result that is no longer true and maintain smart age-offs to maintain the most accurate snapshot of data each day.
Should Spur data be used as a blocking list?
Generally, no. Spur is designed to provide context and intelligence rather than a simple allow/block decision. Most organizations achieve the best results when Spur data is incorporated into broader risk models and decisioning workflows.
Does Spur offer downloadable feeds, local deployments, or MMDB-style delivery?
Available delivery methods may vary by product and customer requirements. Organizations with low-latency or high-volume enrichment needs should contact Spur to discuss available deployment and data-delivery options.
How can I download data on all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses?
IP location, routing, and ownership information is produced at the network level and presented into netblocks. Other data such as client fields or service attributions are produced on an individual IP address basis. For our API customer this coverage is automatically merged to produce full IPv4 and IPv6 coverage. For on-prem services, a combination of these two granularities must be used to cover all IP space.
How can I download all IP addresses for a certain VPN or proxy provider?
This functionality is reserved for our on-prem data customers. Our API access only allows for individual IP Address lookups.
