IP restrictions for users only work while logging in | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hello community
I was wondering if someone else has bumped into a similar issue described below? If so, how did you address it/any workarounds?
Basically, one of our clients has very strict security requirements. Part of which is only allowing users to access Qualtrics from a certain IP address/Range.
So we did the obvious thing. i.e. set IP restrictions inside user permissions as described in this support article.
Now the issue - as briefly mentioned in the article above, this check only happens on login. So, if a client user logs in (say with work VPN or onsite), they are able to log in as expected, but then if they disconnect to work VPN/connect to a hotspot, for example, Qualtrics session continues uninterrupted.
For most orgs, this is probably not even an issue but with certain clients (particularly govt agencies), they treat it like a gaping security hole.
Keen to hear everyone's thoughts.

Thanks for sharing. As this post isĀ  years ago and no one replied so far, can you confirm that this is solved and a solution was found for your client?
