- Subnet (27.97.108.0/24): Abuse density 0%, classified as "clean"
- Neighbor analysis: No active threat siblings identified within /24 subnet
Relationship Graph:
Four relationships mapped, all indicating same-network affiliation to VIL-IN. Limited correlation with external entities.
Recommended Actions:
Based on risk profile 40, the following firewall rules are recommended:
- iptables: `iptables -A INPUT -s 27.97.108.32 -j DROP`
- nftables: `nft add rule inet filter input ip saddr 27.97.108.32 drop`
- nginx: `deny 27.97.108.32;`
- pfSense: `27.97.108.32/32`
- Cloudflare WAF: Block with expression `ip.src eq 27.97.108.32`
- AWS WAF: Add address `27.97.108.32/32` to rule set
SOC Analyst Notes:
This IP represents mobile carrier infrastructure with moderate risk scoring. The lack of open services and clean abuse density in the /24 subnet suggests benign mobile network traffic. However, the 40/100 risk score warrants monitoring. No immediate threat indicators present. Consider contextual analysis of traffic patterns before implementing block rules, as mobile carrier IPs may represent legitimate network activity.
