A system to automatically classify types of IP addresses associated with a user. Information, such as user names, machine information, IP address, etc., may be obtained from logs. For each user or host in the logs, home IP addresses are identified from IP addresses where the user or host shows a predetermined level of activity. Travel IP addresses are identified, which are IP addresses at locations greater than a predetermined distance from the home IP addresses, as determined from geolocation data. A pattern analysis may be performed to determine which of the home IP addresses are work IP addresses associated with the user or host. The system may thus provide a classification of a user's or host's associated IP addresses as being one of travel, home, and work IP addresses. From this classification, mobility patterns may be derived, as well as applications to enhance security, advertising, search and network management. |
