I am the owner and manager for my company on these things. I want accurate location data to be used in making these informed decisions. I expect others in my position making these decisions would feel similarly. These are not personal devices we use, they are work tools often used for remote access when needed in helping our customers and keeping our networks running. I do not want to just "whitelist" a device or devices that could potentially be stolen and we might not notice it until it's been used to get into a system I do not want gotten into by the thiev(ves).
If the location data were accurate there are several cool things we could probably do. The location data has to be accurate though.
hammer185 The good news is that RBA could flag a PC again when it changed locations. Depending on where and when the login attempts were made from, it may even send a security email when the danger is high enough.
** I am still trying to replicate the issue you experienced, though have not been able to see my Verizon mobile internet connection route traffic through Las Vegas yet.
It's not just wrong information once indicating Las Vegas. This has happened several times using the same exact smart phones that were already listed as trusted devices. Reviewing the data it seems that the pattern is when a smart phone has been allocated an IP from this ARIN allocation -> https://whois.arin.net/rest/net/NET-174-192-0-0-1/pft?s=174.222.4.103. If they cannot manage to report accurate gelocation data with the IP addresses they manage perhaps they should have them revoked and given to a more responsible entity. These things clearly could affect national and internations security on networks. What is unbelievable to me is they know for a fact that my smart phones from gps data are in an exact spot. I wonder if they lie about the location because they have lied about where they do and do not have coverage?
