It is pretty hard to go from "something at this IP is sending packets to me"
to saying "I am getting hack attempts from this IP". Without the ability to
establish that going to the second is clearly valid, there is nothing one
can do, and even with it whether anything can be done usually depends
on the good will of those with the network where that IP lives.
You might want to search the MS website for the guidance on
using IPsec for "domain isolation".
