3. Route Instability: Network routing has changed within the last 30 days
Positive Indicators:
- No active services or open ports
- Neighboring IPs show low risk profiles
- No persistent malicious behavior observed
- No association with known threat campaigns
Recommendation: Monitor for changes in geographic signals and DNSBL status. Consider blocking based on risk score threshold policy, pending correlation with additional threat intelligence.
