High Risk
IP 164.92.82.91 is a high-risk address associated with sustained hacking activity, generating 7,838 abuse reports with a threat level of 8 out of 10, indicating a significant and ongoing risk to exposed network services.
The IP is registered to DIGITALOCEAN-ASN (AS14061) and geolocated to the United States, with activity spanning from September 2025 through June 2026. The consistent report volume and an activity frequency rating of 8 out of 10 confirm persistent, repeated intrusion attempts rather than isolated scanning. All 20 recent reports attribute the malicious activity to hacking, encompassing unauthorized access attempts, exploitation of vulnerabilities, and intrusion attempts against exposed services. Detection originated entirely from automated honeypot sensors, which identified the address repeatedly probing for weaknesses in internet-facing systems.
Hacking activity at this scale represents a concrete threat to any exposed service running on ports or protocols the address targeted. The sustained, high-frequency nature of the reports suggests the host may be part of an automated attack infrastructure cycling through known exploitation techniques. Services such as remote administration interfaces, unpatched web applications, or poorly configured network daemons face the highest risk of compromise. Each successful connection attempt in these scenarios could serve as a precursor to data exfiltration, malware deployment, or lateral movement within a network.
Site operators should immediately block or rate-limit connections from this IP at the firewall or network perimeter level. Implementing fail2ban or equivalent log-based intrusion prevention tools can automate the blocking of repeated hacking attempts. Ensuring all internet-facing software is current with security patches and hardening authentication mechanisms—such as enforcing key-based authentication and disabling default credentials—will reduce the attack surface. Continuous monitoring of abuse reports and connection logs will help identify any evolving tactics from this source.
