- No threat indicators present
- SSH exposure is normal for cloud compute instances
Monitoring Parameters
- Track SSH port activity for anomalous access patterns
- Monitor for sudden changes in geolocation consistency
- Watch for new DNS/email service additions
Alert Thresholds
| Condition | Action |
|---|---|
| Risk Score > 50 | Review for threat indicators |
| New blacklist hits | Investigate source |
| Geolocation drift > 50km | Validate legitimacy |
| New open ports > 10 | Assess service legitimacy |

## INTELLIGENCE NOTES
This IP represents standard cloud infrastructure hosting on DigitalOcean. The single SSH open port is typical for cloud compute instances. Low neighborhood abuse density (1/10) and clean subnet classification support the low-risk assessment. No correlation to known threat campaigns or malicious infrastructure. SOC teams should maintain standard monitoring without elevated alerting.
