163.227.63.213 has been assigned a threat score of 60/100 (High). The IP is rated as a high-level threat. Network administrators should implement blocking rules and monitor for any connections from this address.
The following attack categories were identified:
The address 163.227.63.213 originates from Maijdi, Bangladesh, operating on the network of Zero 4 Communication. It was identified through automated analysis of incoming network traffic across monitored endpoints. During its 1-day observation window, we recorded 1 hostile requests from this IP — roughly 1 per day on average. This residential IP is likely a compromised consumer device. Home routers and IoT equipment with default credentials are prime targets for botnet operators. Active path scanning has been detected — this IP probes for hundreds of common file and directory names. Our records show 101 malicious IPs originating from Bangladesh, positioning it as a significant contributor to global threat activity. The score of 60/100 warrants active monitoring and rate-limiting. Full blocking is advisable for sensitive systems.
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.
XXE vulnerabilities in XML parsers allow attackers to read local files, perform SSRF, and execute denial of service attacks. Many legacy applications and APIs remain vulnerable to XXE due to insecure default XML parser configurations.
Attacks targeting software supply chains compromise trusted update mechanisms to distribute malware at scale. Dependency confusion, typosquatting in package registries, and compromised build pipelines threaten even organizations with strong direct security postures.
