# IP Intelligence Briefing: 136.117.217.99/32
Classification: Low Risk (Risk Score: 25)
Last Updated: 2026-08-12
Status: Google Cloud Infrastructure
## Executive Summary
IP address 136.117.217.99 is a Google Cloud Compute instance located in the United States. The IP exhibits low-risk characteristics with no active threat indicators. However, geolocation validation anomalies and a single high-severity blacklist listing warrant monitoring.
## Ownership and Infrastructure
- Organization: Google LLC (ASN 396982)
- Network: GOOGL-46 (136.112.0.0/12)
- Infrastructure Type: Cloud Compute (Google Cloud Platform)
- Location: The Dalles, Oregon, US
- DNS Alias: 99.217.117.136.bc.googleusercontent.com
## Risk Assessment
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Risk Score | 25 (Low) |
| Provider Score | 0 |
| Authority Score | 0 |
| Blacklist Count | 1 listing |
| Reputation | Low Risk |
Key Observations:
- No open ports detected; services show as "Firewalled / No Services"
- HTTP/2.0 enabled with 403 Forbidden response status
- TLS certificate: None
- DNSSEC valid; CAA records present
## Geolocation Validation
Anomaly Detected: RTT validation violation indicates reported geolocation may be inaccurate.
- Claimed distance: 8,032.6 km from probe location
- Minimum possible RTT for claimed distance: 160.65 ms
- Observed RTT: 82.0 ms (physically impossible)
- Geo validity flag: false
- Accuracy radius: 150 km
This suggests the IP may be routing through unexpected paths or the geolocation data is based on inference rather than direct measurement.
## Threat Indicators
- Blacklist Status: Listed on 1 of 8 threat feeds (max severity: high)
- Tor Exit Node: No
- Known Attacker: No
- Spam Source: No
- Campaign Associations: None detected
- Control Plane: DNSBL listed on 1 list (of 8 total)
## Network Neighborhood
- Subnet: 136.117.217.0/24
- Abuse Density: 0 (clean)
- Sibling IPs: 0 detected
- Classification: Mostly clean
The /24 subnet shows no adjacent malicious activity, suggesting isolated occurrence.
## Historical Activity
- Total Observations: 24
- Recent Activity: 2026-08-12
- Threat Persistence: 0 days
- Ownership Changes: 0
The IP has maintained consistent ownership and no persistent malicious behavior detected over the observation period.
## Recommendations
1. Monitor Blacklist Status: The single high-severity blacklist listing requires investigation. Determine the list source and reason for listing.
2. Validate Geolocation: The RTT violation indicates the claimed US/OR location may not be accurate. Consider alternative attribution methods.
3. Low-Priority Monitoring: Given Google Cloud infrastructure and low risk score, no immediate blocking required. Implement standard cloud infrastructure monitoring.
4. No Firewall Rules Recommended: Risk score of 25 does not warrant default block or restrictive rules.
## Conclusion
IP 136.117.217.99 represents Google Cloud infrastructure with a low risk profile. The primary concern is the RTT geolocation validation anomaly and one high-severity blacklist listing. No immediate action required; maintain routine monitoring and investigate the blacklist listing if it impacts operational security posture.
