📊 Threat Analysis
Our monitoring infrastructure has identified 35.252.14.98, geolocated to Tel Aviv, IL, operating on the network of Google LLC, as a source of suspicious network activity. Over a period of 3 days, this IP generated 115 malicious requests, averaging approximately 38.3 requests per day. 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 Request Flooding combined with User-Agent Anomaly indicate a coordinated assault rather than opportunistic scanning. IL currently accounts for 205 blocked IPs in our database, making it a significant source of malicious traffic. At 263/100, this is an extremely high-risk address. All traffic should be considered hostile.

💡 DDoS Mitigation Approaches
Distributed denial of service attacks overwhelm infrastructure with traffic volume. Effective mitigation combines always-on traffic scrubbing, anycast network distribution, rate limiting, and the ability to quickly scale absorption capacity during attacks.
💡 Passive DNS for Threat Hunting
Passive DNS databases record historical DNS resolution data, enabling analysts to track domain changes, identify related infrastructure, and discover malicious domains sharing hosting with known threats. This historical context is invaluable for threat investigation.
