Noob sidenote, TIL that you must "defang" ip addresses in security reports so you write it with brackets like 135.136.1[.]133.

This prevent it from being clickable.

Links are also often modified with "hxxps" instead of "https". Link is still clickable but will not work.

There was a day when many people used a Firefox addon that rewrote hxxps to https and would undefang the IP addresses. I can't remember what it's called but these days I use FoxReplace to do similar things. If I want to obfuscate things I typically base64 encode for the laptop and workstation users.
