Report for IP: 45.138.12.168

• Spamhaus DROP — Spamhaus DROP lists netblocks hijacked or leased by professional spam and cybercrime operations. Very low false-positive rate: no legitimate traffic is expected from these ranges.
• FireHOL level1 — FireHOL level1 merges DShield, Spamhaus DROP, bogon ranges and Feodo botnet servers into one curated list built for very low false positives. When DShield or Spamhaus DROP also match, this one adds no independent evidence, since it already contains them.

Curated, low-false-positive lists match, so this is a high-confidence bad address.

This IP generated over 20 HTTP 4xx errors in 60 seconds using a User-Agent identified as a bad bot (scraper, headless browser, or attack proxy). The high error rate indicates automated probing for vulnerabilities while trying to appear as generic traffic. Legitimate services respect robots.txt and do not flood servers with errors.

This IP is on the Spamhaus DROP list — a dataset of netblocks hijacked or leased by professional spam and cybercrime operations with no legitimate users. Traffic from DROP-listed ranges is considered hostile by design. Blocking is unconditional.
