📊 Threat Analysis
The address 111.225.148.15 originates from Shijiazhuang, China, operating on the network of Chinanet. It was identified through automated analysis of incoming network traffic across monitored endpoints. Our sensors captured 404 malicious requests from this address across a 3-day span, reflecting a sustained attack cadence of ~134.7 requests per day. Operating from a residential network, this IP may represent a compromised home gateway or IoT device that has been drafted into a larger attack infrastructure. The IP is engaged in request flooding, sending traffic at rates designed to exhaust server capacity. China currently accounts for 240 blocked IPs in our database, making it a significant source of malicious traffic. The score of 80/100 indicates a confirmed malicious actor. Network-level blocking is appropriate.
This IP is classified as residential, suggesting it may belong to a compromised home device, IoT botnet member, or an infected personal computer. Residential IPs involved in attacks often indicate malware infection without the owner's knowledge.
