Recommendations
Actions taken & recommended
- IP 145.223.8.6 is blocked at application level (HTTP 403)
- Consider blocking at firewall level (iptables/CSF) to reduce server load
- Other malicious IPs detected in the same /24 subnet — consider blocking 145.223.8.0/24
- Report abuse to the network provider via their abuse contact
- Ensure sensitive files (.env, .git, backups) are not accessible from the web

📊 Threat Analysis
Our monitoring infrastructure has identified 145.223.8.6, geolocated to Steinsel, LU, operating on the network of Cyberzone S.A., as a source of suspicious network activity. Over a period of 7 days, this IP generated 263 malicious requests, averaging approximately 37.6 requests per day. This IP is identified as a VPN or proxy endpoint, commonly used to mask the true origin of attack traffic and bypass geographic or reputation-based blocking. Two attack patterns were identified (Request Flooding and User-Agent Anomaly), suggesting a semi-automated campaign that targets multiple vulnerabilities. Our records show 51 malicious IPs originating from LU, positioning it as a notable contributor to global threat activity. With a threat score of 255/100, this IP is among the most dangerous addresses in our database. Immediate and complete blocking is strongly recommended.
This IP is associated with a VPN or proxy service. Attackers frequently route their traffic through anonymizing services to obscure their true location. This makes attribution more challenging but the malicious behavior patterns remain detectable.
