## Witness AI - IP Assessment (AI-generated)

AI-generated assessment. Verify critical details independently.

IP 23.46.176.18 is associated with Akamai Technologies, Inc. (AS20940), a major content delivery network provider headquartered in the Netherlands with operations in the United States. The address belongs to the 23.32.0.0/11 CIDR block registered under the name AKAMAI within the ARIN region. Geolocation data places the network presence in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, though specific server locations for anycast deployments are not determinable from static records alone. The network role is identified as a CDN web server; however, the anycast status remains unverified in the current dataset, and the provided geolocation represents an approximate network location rather than a physical endpoint.

DNS hygiene assessments returned a score of zero because checks for CAA, SPF, DMARC, and DNSSEC were not performed on the target, leaving the security posture of the domain records unassessed. No active TLS probes were successful against the IP at the time of observation. Historical certificate data indicates a connection to DigiCert Global G3, with a certificate subject matching "Akamai Technologies, Inc." and a validity period extending from September 2026 to April 2027. The certificate covers a subject alternative name list including "a248.e.akamai.net" and various "akamaized" subdomains. No indicators of malicious activity, proxy usage, or VPN services were detected. Given the confirmed association with a legitimate CDN infrastructure and the lack of adverse findings, the IP is characterized as benign, though ongoing monitoring is recommended to account for potential reputation shifts.
