Investigation indicates IP 172.253.115.18/32 is associated with Google LLC (AS15169) within the 172.253.0.0/16 block and classified as Low Risk with a risk score of 25. The infrastructure operates as a cloud compute web server supporting HTTP/2 on ports 80 and 443. Reputation data shows no known campaigns, threat indicators, or abuse reports. The immediate subnet 172.253.115.18/24 maintained a clean classification with zero abuse density and zero active threat siblings.
Technical validation noted a contradiction between claimed geolocation in New York and RTT physics measurements, which indicated a minimum distance of 7625.7 km. Despite this discrepancy, behavioral analysis recorded no honeypot hits, enumeration strikes, or WAF violations over the observation period from September 14 to September 23. Due to data inconsistencies and low confidence scores, the recommended course of action is to monitor traffic without immediate mitigation.
