Critical Alert
IP 147.185.133.175 is a critical-risk address linked to sustained hacking activity, with a threat level of 10/10 and 170 abuse reports logged since August 2025. This IP, registered to AS396982 (GOOGLE-CLOUD-PLATFORM) in the United States, represents an active intrusion threat that demands immediate defensive attention from any operator running publicly accessible services.
The address has been under observation for approximately nine months, with automated honeypot sensors consistently flagging it across 20 distinct hacking-category reports. All detection events originate from automated honeypot infrastructure rather than organic community filings, indicating the activity stems from automated attack tools systematically probing targets. The moderate activity frequency score of 3/10 suggests this is not random scanning but rather deliberate, periodic attack runs conducted by infrastructure that continues to operate. The 76% confidence score reflects the certainty of malicious intent based on observed attack-pattern behavior.
The dominant threat classification—hacking activity—encompasses intrusion attempts, exploitation of vulnerabilities, and unauthorized access vectors. This pattern typically indicates the address is used to launch automated exploit delivery, probe for weak points in exposed services, or conduct credential-based attacks against authentication systems. Real-world risk includes potential compromise of unpatched services, brute-force success against weak credentials, and use as an initial access vector for further network intrusion. The sustained nature of reports confirms this is not isolated probing but persistent malicious operation.
Operators should block 147.185.133.175 at the network perimeter using firewall deny-rules or access-control lists. Implementing dynamic blocking tools such as fail2ban to automatically ban IPs after repeated authentication failures provides an effective second layer. Authentication hardening—including enforcement of strong, unique credentials and disabling unnecessary administrative access—is essential given the credential-focused nature of many hacking campaigns. Maintaining comprehensive patch management and deploying intrusion detection monitoring will help identify any exploitation attempts that bypass perimeter controls.
