📊 Threat Analysis
Our monitoring infrastructure has identified 142.147.111.221, geolocated to Los Angeles, United States, operating on the network of Sprious LLC, Blazing SEO, LLC, as a source of suspicious network activity. The address has been active for 15 days in our monitoring system, producing 9 flagged requests at a rate of ~0.6/day. The address is classified as residential, meaning it likely belongs to an end-user ISP connection. Malicious activity from residential IPs typically indicates device compromise or botnet membership. The dual attack vectors of Path Enumeration combined with User-Agent Anomaly indicate a coordinated assault rather than opportunistic scanning. With 206 flagged addresses, United States represents a significant presence in our threat database. At 130/100, this is an extremely high-risk address. All traffic should be considered hostile.
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.
