Line graph showing IP activity from two bulletproof hosting providers from July to November. Orange line represents PQ Hosting (AS44477) peaking at 1,600 IPs in early September before declining to near zero by November. Blue line shows THE.Hosting/WorkTitans (AS209847) remaining low until late September, then spiking to over 1,000 IPs in November as PQ Hosting activity ceased, illustrating the migration of malicious operations between hosting providers.
