The address belongs to the VFDE-IP-SERVICE-01 network (ASN 3209) within the Vodafone Germany IP Core Backbone infrastructure. No active threat indicators were observed, and the subnet shows clean classification with zero threat siblings.

## Ownership and Infrastructure

The IP address is registered to Vodafone Germany IP Core Backbone (ASN 3209, RIR: RIPE). The network block is 92.208.0.0/15, with the specific CIDR allocation being 92.208.0.0/14 per BGP route data. The infrastructure type is classified as a mobile carrier service, specifically Vodafone mobile network (MCC: 262, MNC: 02, LTE/5G technology). The service purpose is documented as "Firewalled / No Services," indicating no public-facing services are exposed.

## Geolocation and Resolution

DNS resolution confirmed the PTR hostname as ipservice-092-209-238-161.092.209.pools.vodafone-ip.de under the domain vodafone-ip.de. Forward resolution is confirmed with one hostname. Email authentication shows SPF is configured while DMARC is not present.

Geolocation data shows inconsistency: multiple sources indicate the United States (New York) while ownership and network data confirm German infrastructure (Eschborn, DE). The system flagged geoPlausible as false with geo consensus unavailable, suggesting geolocation data conflicts between sources.

## Threat Assessment

Threat indicators are absent. The IP is not flagged as a known attacker, spam source, or Tor exit node. Blacklist count is zero. However, the control plane data indicates one DNSBL listing out of eight total lists checked, with maximum severity marked as high in one observation. No known campaigns correlate with this IP.

The abuse confidence score is null, and no threat persistence was observed. The system does not classify this IP as persistently malicious.

## Network Neighborhood

The /24 subnet 92.209.238.161/24 contains 10 total sibling IPs. Abuse density is 0, and the subnet classification is clean. Risk distribution across neighbors shows nine low-risk IPs and zero high or medium-risk siblings. Only one active sibling was observed in the neighborhood.

## Service Exposure

No open ports were detected on this IP address. Service fingerprinting returned null values for TLS certificates, HTTP titles, server banners, and HTTP headers. The IP is not classified as hosting, cloud, CDN, VPN, proxy, or Tor infrastructure.

## Historical Observations

Sixteen total observations were recorded. Recent observations (July 27, 2026 timeframe) confirmed mobile carrier infrastructure classification, clean subnet status, and Vodafone Germany ownership. One observation noted DNSBL listings with high severity. No ownership changes or threat persistence was detected across the observation period.

## Recommended Actions

Based on the risk profile and lack of active threat indicators, no immediate blocking or mitigation actions are recommended. This IP represents legitimate mobile carrier infrastructure with established reputation. Standard monitoring practices are sufficient given the low-risk classification.
