Summary
phoenixNAP
hosting colo dedicated
phoenixNAP is a global IaaS, colocation, dedicated-server, and bare-metal cloud provider headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, built around its flagship Phoenix data center.
What it's used for
- Dedicated and bare-metal servers, colocation, private cloud, backup/DR, and IaaS for business customers across a global set of edge locations.
Notable
- An IP here identifies phoenixNAP as the host, not the operator of whatever runs on it — could be a legitimate business workload or an abusive rented server.
Interesting
- The company's name and origin are tied to the Phoenix NAP (Network Access Point) carrier-neutral facility it grew out of.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
