I just released ptrclassify is a small, dependency-free Python library and CLI that infers likely IP usage from reverse-DNS PTR hostnames. It is intentionally heuristic and multi-label. PTR naming is operator-controlled and is not authoritative evidence of how an address is actually used. The output therefore includes a confidence score, the text that matched, and the rule IDs that produced each label. To summarize, the library is trying to guess usage (and a bit location) of an IP address based on its PTR records. It's based on a set of rules which can be updated easily. #osint #cybersecurity #ptrclassify #opensource #dns :github: https://github.com/adulau/ptrclassify :python: module https://pypi.org/project/ptrclassify/
