Executive Summary
Global threat activity changed by several orders of magnitude (1,836 → 18,446 events), with malware C2 and spam dominating. The US, Netherlands, and China remain top sources, but the surge is broad-based. Nordic activity remains stable, with Finland showing slightly elevated scanning and brute-force attempts (52 events, 41 unique IPs), consistent with its 7-day average. No new campaigns emerged; this reflects a global spike in existing threat vectors. Given the malware C2 concentration in US/SG/GB IPs (<a href="https://ip.wayscloud.services/ip-intelligence/47.251.174.250" target="_blank">47.251.174.250</a>, <a href="https://ip.wayscloud.services/ip-intelligence/47.237.119.253" target="_blank">47.237.119.253</a>, <a href="https://ip.wayscloud.services/ip-intelligence/8.208.46.154" target="_blank">8.208.46.154</a>), consider temporary blocking of /24 ranges from these ASNs. Prioritize inspecting traffic matching the spike’s top categories (malware_c2, spam) over individual IPs. Nordic defenders can deprioritize this as regional baselines hold steady.
