botnet to 204.79.197.200 (Office 365)

Hi,

 

I'm seeing a few of the following messages in my security logs:

 

Message meets Alert condition

File Block Detected:  Protocol:  Source IP: 192.168.0.118 Destination IP: 204.79.197.200 Email Address From:  Email Address To:

Is there any additional information on this?  The IP seems to be Microsoft edge services for office365 and bing.  

 

Seems like a false positive but wanted to see if anybody else has seen this one and has some insight.

 

I look forward to your reply.

 

Brandon

See this post. It has to do with the DDoS on Dyn.
