Seekport

Seekport is an internet search engine. Originally founded in 2003, the search engine has been operated by SISTRIX, a platform intelligence provider from Bonn (Germany), since December 2014. The search engine is a public, free and independent alternative to Google. Seekport does not store user data and does not profile users. Seekport is also operated without advertising and has no conflicts of interest in the display of search results.

How Centinel checks it

User agent: The request calls itself this crawler. Anyone can send the same string.
IP ranges: The operator publishes the addresses it crawls from, and Centinel checks the client address against that list.

A request that passes one of these checks is Seekport itself. One that only matches the user agent is reported as unverified. The match tokens, verification domains, and address feeds are not published here.

Allowing or blocking it

The crawler object in the /validate response sets access_allowed to true only for a verified source that your tenant allowlists. A policy rule can allow or block this crawler by its category, Search Engine.
