GreyNoise observed a coordinated, large-scale reconnaissance campaign targeting Citrix ADC/NetScaler Gateways between Jan 28 and Feb 2, 2026: attackers used 63,000+ residential proxies to find login panels and then switched to AWS IPs to rapidly enumerate software versions across ~111,834 sessions. The activity displayed consistent TTPs (identical TCP option ordering, distinct browser fingerprints, VPN/tunnel routing, datacenter jumbo-frame usage), included IoCs, and is assessed as deliberate infrastructure mapping likely intended to support follow-on exploitation of Citrix instances.
