Recommended Security Actions
Firewall Rules: No blocking recommended for legitimate AWS traffic. If traffic to this IP was flagged by internal security controls, consider the following:
1. Allow standard AWS traffic patterns (typically ports 443, 80, 22 if SSH is enabled)
2. Monitor for unusual outbound connections from this IP
3. Block only if specific malicious activity is confirmed through additional indicators
WAF/Proxy Rules: No specific blocking rules required. Standard AWS IP reputation scoring (25/100) indicates low-risk traffic.

Intelligence Conclusions
1. Primary Finding: This IP address is a legitimate Amazon Web Services EC2 instance deployed in Mumbai, India (ap-south-1 region).
2. Risk Context: Risk score of 25 reflects typical cloud infrastructure exposure. The single DNSBL listing is likely a false positive common with large cloud providers.
3. Threat Indicators: No active malicious indicators detected. No associations with known threat actors, campaigns, or spam infrastructure.
4. Operational Profile: Service appears firewalled with no public-facing services. This is consistent with AWS security best practices for EC2 instances.
5. SOC Action: No immediate action required. Standard logging and monitoring recommended. If traffic to this IP was flagged by security tools, it should be reviewed as a potential false positive rather than actionable threat.
Confidence Level: HIGH (based on consistent DNS resolution, stable ownership, and multiple data source correlations)
