Malicious Use of AS808

There have been instances where IP addresses within AS808 may have been reportedly used for malicious activities such as hacking or spamming. According to data provided by cleantalk.org, some IPs on this autonomous system could potentially have been involved in unwanted activities. However, this does not necessarily reflect the intentions or practices of the owner organization, as individual IPs can sometimes be compromised without the knowledge of the AS administrators.

It is important to note that large organizations with extensive network infrastructure like the DND often have measures in place to mitigate and respond to such security threats. The presence of malicious traffic from an AS can result from compromised systems within its network and does not always indicate a lack of security measures by the AS owner.
