Critical Threat
IP 64.62.156.94 is a critical-risk address operated through Hurricane Electric's network (AS6939) in the United States, carrying a threat level of 10 out of 10 and an 85 percent confidence score based on 513 total abuse reports. This address has demonstrated sustained malicious activity across approximately eleven months, from August 2025 through June 2026, with an activity frequency rating of 8 out of 10, marking it as one of the more persistently hostile sources currently monitored in public threat feeds.
The dominant threat classification recorded against this IP is general hacking activity, encompassing diverse intrusion attempts, vulnerability exploitation probing, and unauthorized access enumeration. Detection systems documented connection attempts accompanied by Suricata alerts indicating protocol mismatch conditions between the initiating client and targeted services, a pattern commonly associated with automated tooling that fails to properly negotiate application-layer protocols. All 513 reports originated from automated honeypot infrastructure, confirming that this IP engages in systematic reconnaissance and exploitation scanning across internet-facing systems.
Hacking activity of this intensity and persistence poses substantial risk to any exposed service, particularly authentication interfaces, remote access portals, and network services that form routine targets for automated compromise campaigns. The protocol anomaly signatures suggest the attacking infrastructure relies on scripted tools rather than bespoke manual techniques, yet the sheer volume of attempts creates significant exposure for organizations with misconfigured or unpatched systems. An IP with this report density and threat classification should be treated as a confirmed hostile actor by any site operator encountering its traffic.
Organizations detecting this IP's traffic should implement automated blocking mechanisms such as fail2ban or equivalent intrusion prevention tools to immediately reject further connection attempts. Network-level filtering should deny inbound traffic from unused autonomous systems where feasible. Hardening remote access services with strong credential requirements, certificate-based authentication, and multi-factor enforcement substantially reduces the effectiveness of any attempted intrusion. Continuous monitoring of community abuse feeds and honeypot telemetry ensures timely identification of emerging malicious infrastructure targeting your network perimeter.
