Extreme Threat
IP address 213.142.158.50, registered to A2Z Technologies CJSC in Azerbaijan and operating under ASN AS211995, presents a maximum threat level of 10/10 based on 284 total abuse reports filed through automated honeypot sensors. Despite the low current activity frequency, the sheer volume of historical reports and confirmed hostile intent make this address a significant risk that warrants immediate blocking at network perimeters.
Community reporting and honeypot telemetry indicate that all 20 of the most recent threat-category reports specifically classify the activity as Hacking, which encompasses intrusion attempts, exploitation attempts and unauthorized access probing. The IP was first and most recently reported during March 2026, with automated honeypot sensors contributing the entirety of the confirmed detections. The 72% confidence score reflects a substantial but not absolute certainty that malicious activity has been verified through multiple independent sensor sources rather than isolated false positives.
Hacking activity from an address with this reputation typically signals systematic port scanning, vulnerability probing or credential-based attack campaigns targeting exposed services such as SSH, Telnet or web administration panels. Even though the current activity frequency is assessed as minimal, the confirmed pattern of intrusion-oriented behaviour means any exposed service in range of this address remains a viable target. The concentration of all recent reports into the Hacking category reinforces that this is not opportunistic noise but targeted reconnaissance and exploit activity.
Network operators should implement blocking or rate-limiting rules for this address at the firewall or intrusion-prevention level, giving particular attention to services commonly targeted by automated hacking tools. Deploying tools such as fail2ban to dynamically ban repeat offenders and enforcing strong, unique credentials for any accessible services will reduce exposure. Continuous monitoring of authentication logs for source IP 213.142.158.50 and maintaining timely patching cycles for exposed software will further harden defences against any resumed activity from this source.
