Executive Summary
Global threat volume represents a significant deviation, changing by several orders of magnitude (2,299 → 16,592 events). This surge is primarily driven by a massive increase in spam and attack-related traffic, with the US, India, and China as top source countries. Nordic activity remains stable and within expected baselines; Sweden (122 events) and Finland (40) show typical noise, while Norway (23) and Denmark (1) are consistent with their low-volume profiles. This is not a new campaign but a sharp, widespread amplification of existing threat vectors. Focus defensive actions on the observed patterns rather than individual IPs. Prioritize rate-limiting for the surge in spam and SSH brute force attempts originating from the top source ASNs and CIDR ranges identified. The ephemeral nature of these IPs makes blocking clusters more effective than targeting single addresses.
