Substantial Risk
IP 147.182.202.179 is a high-risk address originating from DigitalOcean's AS14061 network infrastructure in the United States, linked to sustained hacking activity with a threat level rating of 8/10 and accumulating 7,298 abuse reports from automated honeypot sensors between September 2025 and June 2026.
The volume and consistency of reports paint a clear picture of persistent hostile intent. This IP has generated an activity frequency score of 8/10, indicating regular rather than sporadic malicious behavior. All 20 recent reports categorize the activity specifically as hacking, which encompasses intrusion attempts, exploitation of vulnerabilities, and unauthorized access attempts. The detection confidence stands at 84%, meaning analysts have high certainty that the observed behavior is genuinely malicious rather than misclassified legitimate traffic. The sustained reporting window of approximately nine months demonstrates that this address represents an ongoing, organized threat rather than a transient opportunistic attacker.
Hacking activity in this context means automated attempts to breach systems through vulnerability exploitation, credential guessing, or service enumeration. For an exposed service, this translates to constant probing for weaknesses, potential data exfiltration if access is gained, and possible use of the compromised system for further attacks. The volume of 7,298 total reports suggests this IP has been targeting a large number of systems or has been highly visible to detection infrastructure, either way indicating sustained malicious operation that poses concrete risk to any vulnerable service.
Organizations should block IP 147.182.202.179 at the network perimeter immediately. Implement strict rate-limiting on authentication endpoints to disrupt automated attack patterns. Enforce strong, unique credentials combined with multi-factor authentication across all services. Deploy monitoring rules to detect the scanning and probing techniques associated with this threat pattern, and consider using defensive tools such as fail2ban to automatically block repeated offenders matching this behavioral signature.
