Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
government finance legacy
The network of the FDIC, the US agency that insures bank deposits and takes over banks when they fail.
What it's used for
- The agency's own operations. Reverse DNS answers under
fdic.gov, and one sampled host answers underfdicoig.govinstead.
Notable
- Eleven announced prefixes for only 3,328 addresses: two
/23s and eight/24s carved out of167.176.0.0/16under the netnameFDIC-1, plus a single192.147.69.0/24registered separately asFDIC-2. - Three observed BGP neighbours. No IPv6 announced.
- The registry lists a dedicated network operations contact and a separate abuse contact, which is more structure than most organisations of this size bother to record.
Interesting
- The
fdicoig.govhost belongs to the Office of Inspector General, the internal watchdog that audits the FDIC itself. It runs on its own domain, which fits how the office is structured: an inspector general reports to Congress as well as to the agency head, and is meant to be awkward to the organisation it sits inside. - One of those hosts is named
teams02dfw, anddfwis Dallas–Fort Worth, where the FDIC keeps one of its regional offices. The agency was created in 1933 after the bank runs of the Depression, and it still resolves failures the same way: it moves in on a Friday afternoon so the branch can reopen on Monday under a new owner, with depositors' insured money untouched.

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 2026-10-14, 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: 442 networks and 1,773 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.
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.
