Recommendations
Actions taken & recommended
- IP 45.133.113.217 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 45.133.113.0/24
- Report abuse to the network provider via their abuse contact
- Ensure sensitive files (.env, .git, backups) are not accessible from the web

📊 Threat Analysis
Threat intelligence analysis has linked 45.133.113.217 to malicious activity originating from Kyiv, Ukraine, operating on the network of ATLAS-LEASE. The address has been under observation since its initial detection. Our sensors captured 250 malicious requests from this address across a 60-day span, reflecting a sustained attack cadence of ~4.2 requests per day. Classified as a VPN or proxy server, this IP serves as an anonymization layer. While VPNs have legitimate uses, this address has been observed routing clearly malicious traffic. The IP is engaged in request flooding, sending traffic at rates designed to exhaust server capacity. Our records show 157 malicious IPs originating from Ukraine, positioning it as a significant contributor to global threat activity. At 115/100, this is an extremely high-risk address. All traffic should be considered hostile.
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.

💡 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.
💡 DNS-Based Threat Detection
Monitoring DNS queries reveals malicious activity including command-and-control communication, data exfiltration through DNS tunneling, and connections to known malicious domains. DNS is often the first indicator of compromise in network forensics.
