SaaS - Software-as-a-Service
Applications often use various third party platforms for providing authentication, advertising, website hosting, cybersecurity, e-mail services and more. The Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms used by Snort are summarized below.
SaaS solutions are often deployed on multiple IPs across different geographical points-of-presence. In addition, it is common for these IP addresses to be shared by multiple applications. A sample IP is provided below.
SaaS | # of IPs |
---|---|
Google Hosted | 289 |
SendGrid | 6 |
Service | Category | Sample IP | IP Count |
---|---|---|---|
Google Hosted | Hosting | 172.217.170.179 | 289 IPs |
SendGrid | 167.89.118.52 | 6 IPs |
Hosting
Hosting vendors like AWS and Microsoft Azure provide cloud-based computing and network resources to deliver applications. The hosting platforms used by Snort are summarized below by geographical points-of-presence (PoP).
Each PoP can host many IPs to deliver an application. A sample IP is provided.
Cloud Hosts | # of IPs |
---|---|
Amazon S3 | 2486 |
Hosting Platform | Network | PoP | Location | Sample IP | IPs |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Amazon S3 | Amazon S3 | US East (N. Virginia) | United States | 3.5.0.1 | 2486 IPs |
Content Delivery Networks - CDNs
In order to get information to end users more quickly, many applications are distributed from multiple geographical points-of-presence (PoPs) using Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). Each PoP can host many IPs to deliver an application. A sample IP is provided.
Take special note of CDNs that use Anycast technology. Anycast makes it possible to route a single IP address to a variety of different geographic locations. In other words, one global Anycast IP is hosted in multiple geographic locations.
CDNs | # of IPs |
---|---|
CloudFlare | 4 |
Anycast
CDN | Network | Location | Sample IP | IPs |
---|---|---|---|---|
CloudFlare | CloudFlare | Global | 104.19.221.12 | 4 IPs |
