## Recommended Security Actions
Despite moderate risk classification, no specific threat indicators were identified. Blocking is not recommended based solely on this profile. However, the following rules are provided for review:
Firewall Rules
- iptables: `iptables -A INPUT -s 31.220.89.135 -j DROP`
- nftables: `nft add rule inet filter input ip saddr 31.220.89.135 drop`
- nginx: `deny 31.220.89.135;`
- Cloudflare WAF: Block with expression `ip.src eq 31.220.89.135`
- AWS WAF: Block address `31.220.89.135/32`
Recommendation: Monitor but do not block. The IP operates as legitimate cloud infrastructure with no current threat indicators. Consider blocking only if specific attack activity is observed from this address.
