Substantial Risk
IP 45.148.9.8 is a high-risk address with a threat level of 8/10 and a 94% confidence score, primarily linked to high-volume hacking activity including intrusion attempts, exploitation probes, and unauthorized access attempts, with a smaller proportion of VoIP fraud and web application attack reports.
The IP has generated 440 total abuse reports across 20 automated honeypot sensors since first being reported in May 2026, with consistent activity throughout the month and a very high activity frequency rating of 8/10. The address originates from the United States within network AS47890 operated by Unmanaged Ltd. Of the 21 categorized reports in recent detections, hacking activity accounts for 19 incidents, with single reports attributed to VoIP fraud and web application attacks respectively.
Hacking activity from this address represents a persistent threat to exposed services, with honeypot sensors detecting repeated connection attempts indicative of automated scanning and exploitation workflows targeting network services. The VoIP fraud component suggests possible involvement in unauthorized call routing or premium rate exploitation schemes, while the web application attack detections point to reconnaissance and exploitation attempts against web-facing applications including injection and file inclusion probes. The volume and consistency of reports indicate sustained malicious operations rather than opportunistic scanning.
Site operators should implement robust defensive measures including automated abuse detection systems such as fail2ban to dynamically block repeated connection attempts, enforce strong authentication with multi-factor authentication for all remote access services, maintain regular security patching cycles for exposed services and applications, and deploy network-level rate limiting to reduce the effectiveness of automated attack tooling. Continuous monitoring of authentication logs and implementation of web application firewalls provide additional protection against the specific threat patterns associated with this address.
