Summary
Zurich Financial Services Australia
business enterprise insurance
Zurich-Australia-AS-AP is the corporate network of Zurich Financial Services Australia Limited, the North Sydney-based arm of the Zurich Insurance Group, which sells general insurance, life insurance and investment products in Australia and employs roughly 1,800 people locally.
What it's used for
- Enterprise connectivity for an insurer: broker and adviser-facing portals, policy and claims systems, and the corporate estate behind them.
- RIS sees 9 IPv4 prefixes covering 2,304 addresses and no IPv6. Every prefix is a /24, drawn from three legacy APNIC ranges —
203.0.241.0,203.0.243.0,203.0.248.0,203.0.249.0;202.20.71.0through202.20.74.0; and202.0.95.0.
Notable
- Enterprise end-site, and the reverse DNS names the tenant directly. A sampled address in
202.20.72.0/24resolves tozsi-mendix-test.zurich.com.au— a test instance of a Mendix low-code application, on the company's own domain. Non-production application servers are what an in-house corporate estate looks like from outside. You do not find a named test environment sitting in an ISP's customer pool or a wholesale carrier's core. - The 3 observed BGP neighbours confirm the role. That is enough to be sensibly multi-homed for a business that cannot afford a single point of failure, and nowhere near the hundreds-to-thousands of adjacencies a transit carrier accumulates. Nothing sits downstream of this AS.
- Two thousand-odd addresses across nine /24s is a typical enterprise pattern: separate blocks for DMZ, application tiers, partner links and legacy systems, kept distinct so they can be firewalled and routed independently rather than aggregated for efficiency.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-01, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 447 networks and 1,843 prefixes, as published 2026-11-02. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
