Executive Summary
Global threat volume increased 14% compared to the previous 6-hour period, a significant deviation from the baseline. This rise is primarily driven by reconnaissance activity, consistent with recent patterns. Nordic countries show stable threat levels, with Sweden (723 events) and Finland (436 events) experiencing routine background noise dominated by blacklisted IPs and scanning. Norway's activity remains low but notable for its mix of attacks, brute force, and malware C2. Consider temporarily blocking or rate-limiting traffic from ASNs and CIDR ranges associated with SSH brute force attacks, particularly those originating from Romania (<a href="https://ip.wayscloud.services/country-intelligence/RO" target="_blank">RO</a>) and the US, as these represent persistent, high-volume patterns rather than ephemeral IPs.
