Target IP 23.194.96.49 was identified as a node within Akamai Technologies, Inc. (ASN 16625) infrastructure, functioning as a Content Delivery Network (CDN). Geolocation data registered the location as Redmond, WA, United States, though analysis noted contradictions between source data suggesting Japan versus the US, alongside RTT physics violations inconsistent with the claimed distance. The IP resolved to a Microsoft Corporation certificate for the `*.xboxlive.com` domain and served HTTP and HTTPS traffic on ports 80 and 443.
Threat assessment assigned a Risk Score of 25 (Low Risk) with no known campaigns or active attacker classification. The host appeared on one of eight DNS blacklists, while the immediate subnet (23.194.96.0/24) was classified as clean with zero active malicious siblings. Observations recorded activity between September 4 and September 12, 2026.
Due to conflicting geolocation signals and RTT anomalies, the profile recommendation is to monitor the address, though no immediate firewall blocking action is advised based on current threat indicators.
