Witness AI IP Assessment (AI-generated)
AI-generated assessment. Verify critical details independently.
The host 209.38.224.143/32 was observed as an active endpoint within the DigitalOcean, LLC infrastructure, specifically associated with the DO-13 CIDR block (209.38.0.0/16) under AS14061. Network role assessments classified the address as a cloud-hosted web server located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, despite registration data indicating ownership by DigitalOcean, LLC in the United States. TLS probing retrieved a historical certificate issued by SSL.com for the subject CN=*.cloudwaysapps.com, valid between August 2026 and February 2027, though the current status of the endpoint is unknown. No active TLS probes were recorded at the time of assessment.
DNS hygiene checks returned mixed results: SPF, DMARC, and FCR-DNS were not checked, while CAA and DNSSEC statuses were unknown. The associated domain targets for these checks included cloudwaysapps.com and 143.224.38.209.in-addr.arpa. The overall risk score remained at zero, but the absence of confirmed SPF, DMARC, or CAA records precludes a determination of complete email or DNS security posture. Given the conflicting geolocation data and limited DNS validation, continued monitoring is recommended to corroborate the observed network role and certificate validity.
