What data do you have available to link username/IP? Even on the same network, if you don't have admin rights on another machine (either via user/password, or domain rights) you shouldn't be able to find the logged in user's username, if that's what you mean. — ProgrammingLlama, Apr 12 '19 at 05:23
this application runs on a windows server which has the active directive — SAURABH RATHOD, Apr 12 '19 at 05:25

I'm assuming you're using an HttpListener/HttpRequestListener here, and if so please see HttpListener: how to get http user and password? - the accepted answer there deals with basic auth but it links to an article that details how to request Windows auth, so the client should quote the logged in windows user name to your app.

Ps: Looks like you're creating a log? That string concat code is a bit of a mess and would benefit from being tidied up, maybe using interpolated strings:

    $@"Host: {new Program().GetHostName(ip[0].ToString())}<br/>
KeepAlive: {request.KeepAlive}<br/>
Local end point: {request.LocalEndPoint}<br/>
... and so on ...
