Witness AI IP Assessment (AI-generated)
AI-generated assessment. Verify critical details independently.
The target host, 121.199.0.21/32, is part of the ALISOFT network (AS37963), allocated to Alibaba Cloud under the 121.196.0.0/14 CIDR block within the APNIC region. Geolocation data places the network in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China. Automated assessment yielded a risk score of 0, though the DNS hygiene profile remains unassessed (score 0) with SPF, DMARC, and CAA checks marked as not checked or not applicable, and DNSSEC status unknown. Network role analysis indicates the host is likely firewalled with no active services, as probes to ports 443 and 8443 returned unreachable statuses. Anycast status is unverified. Due to the lack of active service responses and limited DNS validation data, the host is currently characterized as non-interactive; however, this does not definitively rule out latent malicious activity. Continued monitoring is recommended to observe future service activation or behavioral changes.
