Summary
CANTV Servicios, Venezuela
business static-addressing incumbent-telco state-owned cantv
AS10293 belongs to CANTV Servicios, part of Compañía Anónima Nacional Teléfonos de Venezuela — the Venezuelan incumbent telco, founded in 1930 and state-controlled since 2007. CANTV sells fixed telephony, ADSL and fibre broadband (the ABA and ABA Ultra products), mobile through Movilnet, and corporate data services.
What it's used for
This particular AS carries a small slice of CANTV's statically addressed customer space, not the bulk of its network. Every sampled address in 200.84.128.0/24 resolves as 200.84.128-5.estatic.cantv.net — CANTV's own naming for static assignments, as opposed to the dynamically pooled addresses a consumer ADSL line gets. The neighbouring blocks resolve under pfi-jborde.mx.cantv.net and mbo-jborde.mx.cantv.net, which look like internal aggregation-point identifiers rather than customer names.
Notable
Filed as business, on a size argument that is hard to escape. RIS observes only 5 IPv4 prefixes carrying 1,280 addresses behind 4 BGP neighbours. CANTV is a national incumbent with a subscriber base in the millions; 1,280 addresses cannot be its consumer broadband estate, which is announced from other autonomous systems. What fits 1,280 statically named addresses is exactly what the PTRs suggest: fixed-address assignments handed to business customers and to CANTV's own service platforms.
Four neighbours rules out any transit reading — a carrier is defined by peering breadth, and this AS has almost none.
Interesting
Do not geolocate this block as "Venezuelan home broadband". The estatic naming marks it as static allocations, a population that behaves very differently from a dynamic ADSL pool: stable, long-lived, and far more likely to be a server or a fixed office endpoint than a household.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.

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.
