Intelligence Briefing: IP 23.44.129.38/32
Ownership and Infrastructure
The IP address 23.44.129.38/32 was identified as legitimate infrastructure owned by Akamai Technologies, Inc. (ASN 20940). The system classified the asset as a Content Delivery Network (CDN) operating standard web services on ports 80 and 443. A TLS certificate issued by DigiCert Inc. was observed for the domain a248.e.akamai.net.
Threat Assessment
Threat analysis indicated a low-risk reputation score of 5 with zero blacklist hits and no associations with known attacker campaigns. Behavioral analysis confirmed the asset was not an attacker, Tor exit node, or spam source. The immediate neighborhood of the 23.44.129.0/24 subnet showed an abuse density of 0.1429, with six identified threat siblings among active peers.
Technical Anomalies and Hygiene
Data consistency checks highlighted specific contradictions. Geolocation data placed the server in New York, US, yet Round Trip Time (RTT) measurements contradicted this physics model, indicating a distance of 5968 km with a 22ms latency. Additionally, DNS hygiene was rated poor due to the absence of SPF, DMARC, and DNSSEC records. Routing validation confirmed RPKI validity and IRR consistency for the origin AS20940.
Recommendation
Based on the signal contradictions and low-risk profile, the recommended action was to monitor the address. No evidence suggested active attacker behavior or persistent malicious intent during the observation period.
