Open Ports & Services
Network reconnaissance data from Shodan. Open ports may indicate running services, misconfigurations, or potential attack surfaces.
| Port | Service | Risk | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 23 | Telnet | Critical | Telnet — unencrypted remote access, extremely dangerous if exposed |
| 80 | HTTP | Low | HTTP web server — standard web traffic |
| 2000 | Unknown | Low | Service on port 2000 |
| 3000 | Unknown | Low | Service on port 3000 |
⚠️ Network scanning reveals 1 dangerous service exposed on 157.20.32.165. Telnet (23) transmits credentials in plaintext — likely a compromised IoT device. These services should not be publicly accessible without strict firewall rules.

📊 Threat Analysis
IP address 157.20.32.165 has been traced to Jakarta, Indonesia, operating on the network of PT Intercloud Digital Inovasi. Our threat detection systems have flagged this address based on observed malicious behavior patterns. During its 1-day observation window, we recorded 3 hostile requests from this IP — roughly 3 per day on average. Classified as a hosting IP, this address likely runs on a rented server or cloud instance. Attackers prefer datacenter IPs for their high bandwidth and disposable nature. The dual attack vectors of User-Agent Anomaly combined with Request Flooding indicate a coordinated assault rather than opportunistic scanning. Our records show 101 malicious IPs originating from Indonesia, positioning it as a significant contributor to global threat activity. At 220/100, this is an extremely high-risk address. All traffic should be considered hostile.
This IP belongs to a hosting or data center provider. Malicious traffic from hosting infrastructure often originates from compromised VPS instances, rented servers used for scanning campaigns, or abused free-tier cloud accounts. Hosting providers typically respond to abuse reports within 24-72 hours.

💡 User-Agent Analysis Techniques
Analyzing User-Agent strings reveals automated tools masquerading as legitimate browsers. Inconsistencies between claimed browser capabilities and actual behavior, impossible version combinations, and known scanner signatures help identify malicious clients.
💡 Autonomous System Analysis
Analyzing attack patterns at the AS (Autonomous System) level reveals which networks harbor the most malicious activity. Some ASes have abuse rates orders of magnitude higher than average, indicating lax enforcement of acceptable use policies.
