Maximum Danger
IP 183.81.169.235 is a maximum-threat-level address that automated honeypot sensors flagged 189 times in a short reporting window for active hacking operations, representing a severe risk to any exposed network services. The Netherlands-based IP, routed through ASN AS206264 operated by Amarutu Technology Ltd, generated this substantial report volume entirely from automated honeypot detections, indicating sustained, automated exploitation attempts rather than isolated probing.
The volume and consistency of these reports distinguish this address from typical noise seen on internet-facing systems. All 189 reports originated from honeypot sensors configured to capture intrusion activity, with the dominant threat category being general hacking attempts encompassing vulnerability exploitation and unauthorized access vectors. Despite the extremely high threat classification, the activity frequency score of zero suggests the most aggressive connection attempts may have concluded or been throttled, though the cumulative report count signals a persistent threat history that warrants continued vigilance. The entire reporting window compressed into March 2026 indicates concentrated, time-bounded malicious focus.
Hacking activity as classified here encompasses the full spectrum of intrusion methodologies attackers employ against exposed services, including vulnerability scanning, credential attacks, and exploitation of unpatched software. For network operators, this classification means the source has demonstrated intent and capability to compromise systems through automated means. The address poses concrete risk to SSH, Telnet, HTTP interfaces, and any other service inadvertently left accessible on directly attached hosts, creating potential entry points for subsequent lateral movement or data exfiltration.
Network defenders should immediately block or heavily rate-limit traffic originating from this address at the firewall or network edge device. Implementing fail2ban or similar dynamic blocking tools can automate this response based on log patterns. Organizations should verify all internet-facing services run current patches and enforce strong authentication, particularly on remote access protocols. Continuous monitoring for scanning activity and enforcing least-privilege access controls across exposed infrastructure significantly reduce the attack surface this threat actor would exploit.
