Analysis period: 2026-02-22T18:00:01.484342 - 2026-02-23T00:00:01.484342 (6 hours)
Executive Summary
Global threat volume increased 14.0% vs previous period, a notable deviation from the stable baseline, primarily driven by a surge in generic attacks and SSH brute force. Nordic countries remain stable with low, routine activity; Sweden (25 events), Finland (7), and Norway (6) show no significant deviation from their typical background noise. The top threat actors are clustered within specific ASNs from Turkmenistan (<a href="https://ip.wayscloud.services/ip-intelligence/91.202.233.0" target="_blank">91.202.233.0</a>/24), Australia (<a href="https://ip.wayscloud.services/ip-intelligence/170.64.0.0" target="_blank">170.64.0.0</a>/16), and Germany, indicating coordinated campaigns rather than isolated IPs. Focus on the emerging cluster from ASNs in Australia and Germany, which has shown persistent activity over several days. Consider implementing temporary network blocks or aggressive rate-limiting for the /16 and /24 ranges associated with these persistent campaigns, particularly targeting SSH services. Deprioritize individual IPs from the Nordic region as they represent routine, low-volume scanning activity.
