Nevertheless, like any large network, it may occasionally be exploited by hackers or spammers. According to data provided by CleanTalk, which monitors various IP addresses and autonomous systems for spam and hacking activities, there might be isolated incidents where parts of the network under AS13968 have been reported to engage in such activities.
