## Recommended Actions
Immediate:
- No immediate blocking required based on current threat profile
- Monitor for service exposure changes (currently firewalled)
Proactive Measures:
- Block inbound traffic from /24 subnet if policy requires (23 threat siblings)
- Monitor DNS resolution changes (currently no open services)
- Review firewall rules for subnet-level controls
Long-term:
- Continue monitoring subnet abuse density trends
- Track ownership changes for the /24 block
- Maintain geo-validation baselines for RTT anomalies
