Mar 07, 2026 ipinfopage

General

This page contains threat intelligence information for the IPv4 address 197.232.18.128 and was generated either as a result of observed malicious activity or as an information gathering exercise to assist with enrichment of security events and context. All information is gathered passively through aggregation of public sources, or observations through activity upon honeynets. The host score is calculated through a series of statistically weighted values and machine learning which takes into account metadata such as host information, frequency, volume and global distribution of malicious activity, association with other known malicious hosts or networks, proxying or anonymising behaviour such as with tor exit nodes, residential proxies or VPN services, and many other attributes. These values are historical and indicative only - and should not be taken to be an accurate representation of the users, businesses or networks in which they reside.
