Summary
JCPenney
enterprise legacy
JCPENNEY-AS is the corporate network of JCPenney, the American department-store chain headquartered in Plano, Texas. The AS carries the retailer's own systems; it sells no connectivity.
What it's used for
Enterprise networking for a large retail estate. RIS sees 22 announced IPv4 prefixes carrying 32,768 addresses and no IPv6, against 4 observed BGP neighbours.
Every prefix comes out of one parent range, 146.235.0.0/16: two /18s plus a long tail of /23s and /24s deaggregated from inside it. That pattern — a single legacy allocation sliced into many small announcements, multihomed to a few carriers — is how a retailer with distribution centres, data centres and a large store footprint steers traffic to different entry points. It is not how a provider assigns space to customers, and the modest peer count rules out any transit role.
The reverse DNS is uniform and first-party: every sampled address resolves to 146-235-<a>-<b>-jcp.jcpenney.com. An operator-templated PTR across the whole space, naming only the holder, confirms the addresses carry the company's own hosts rather than any third party's.
Notable
No IPv6 is announced at all. That is unremarkable for a corporate AS of this vintage: public-facing retail services generally sit behind CDNs and cloud front ends that terminate IPv6 on the company's behalf, so the enterprise network itself is under little pressure to dual-stack.

Internet exchanges
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 2026-11-07, 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: 454 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-11-08. 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.
