Critical Alert
IP 147.185.133.233 is a critical-risk address operating from Google Cloud Platform infrastructure in the United States that has generated 639 abuse reports over approximately nine months, with all recent reports attributing the activity to hacking-related intrusion attempts. The address carries a maximum threat score of 10/10, making it one of the most problematic sources currently circulating in threat-intelligence feeds.
The IP is registered to AS396982 under Google's Cloud Platform network, a provider frequently exploited by threat actors for its reputation and geographic diversity. Between September 2025 and May 2026, the address was flagged across 20 separate automated honeypot sensors, generating a total of 639 reports. The activity frequency rating of 4/10 indicates sustained rather than burst activity, suggesting a methodical, persistent campaign rather than opportunistic scanning. Despite the moderate confidence score of 70%, the consistent focus on hacking-related activity across all recent reports paints a clear picture of malicious intent tied to unauthorized access attempts.
Hacking activity encompasses a broad spectrum of intrusion methodologies, including vulnerability exploitation, credential attacks, and unauthorized access attempts against exposed services. The repeated targeting from this IP suggests systematic scanning for exploitable entry points across internet-facing systems, potentially identifying weak configurations or unpatched vulnerabilities before more targeted exploitation occurs. The 70% confidence rating, while not absolute certainty, is sufficiently high to warrant treating this address as a confirmed threat vector based on volume and behavioral consistency.
Site operators should immediately block or rate-limit connections from this address at the network perimeter, particularly on services exposed to the internet. Implementing strict authentication requirements—including multi-factor authentication and account lockout policies—reduces the effectiveness of any credential-based attempts. Deploying automated threat-response tools such as fail2ban or equivalent intrusion prevention systems can detect and respond to the observed attack patterns in real time. Continuous monitoring of authentication logs for failed attempts originating from this IP will help identify which specific services are being actively targeted.
