Extreme Threat
IP 104.234.30.74 is flagged as a critical-risk address with a threat level of 10 out of 10, associated with 301 abuse reports from automated honeypot sensors indicating sustained hacking activity originating from a Centrilogic-hosted network in the United States. The IP address demonstrated malicious behavior during April 2026 according to available reporting data.
The IP has accumulated 301 total reports with a confidence score of 79%, all sourced from automated honeypot sensors. The detection window spans April 2026 for both first and most recent activity, indicating concentrated malicious operations within that period. Geographically, the address routes through AS31863 operated by Centrilogic, Inc., a United States-based network operator. The activity frequency metric of 0 out of 10 may reflect the normalized distribution of connection attempts rather than a lack of ongoing engagement, as the absolute report count of 301 demonstrates persistent hostile probing. All 20 recent reported threat categorizations uniformly classify the activity as hacking, which encompasses unauthorized access attempts, intrusion activities, and vulnerability exploitation against exposed services.
Hacking activity represents one of the most serious threat categories in network security, involving systematic attempts to compromise systems through exploitation of software vulnerabilities, misconfiguration weaknesses, or insecure authentication mechanisms. The sustained volume of reports suggests this address is actively engaged in reconnaissance and exploitation campaigns, likely scanning for exposed services or repeatedly targeting specific vulnerabilities across a broad range of potential victims. The real-world risk includes unauthorized data access, system compromise, lateral movement within networks, and deployment of secondary attack payloads such as malware or ransomware.
Site operators should block IP 104.234.30.74 at the firewall level and implement automated blocking mechanisms such as fail2ban to handle repeated connection attempts from this source. Authentication hardening measures, including enforcement of strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, and account lockout policies, significantly reduce the effectiveness of intrusion attempts. Regular system patching and vulnerability scanning address the underlying weaknesses that such hacking activity seeks to exploit. Continuous traffic monitoring and analysis of connection patterns from this IP can provide early warning of evolving attack strategies.
