Summary
Register (DADA)
hosting business legacy
The network of Register S.p.A., the Italian domain registrar and hosting company, still registered under its former name DADA.
What it's used for
- Registrar and office infrastructure. 768 addresses over two prefixes with one observed BGP neighbour, plus one IPv6
/48.
Notable
- The netnames are
IT-DADA-970904, dating the older block to September 1997, andDADA_FLR_OFFICE_3— underscores rather than hyphens,FLRfor Florence, and a numbered office. - The registry contacts are in Italian: "DADA NOC - sistemisti" for the system administrators and "DADA board - Direzione" for management.
- The AS handle reads
DADA-AS Firenze.
Interesting
- Naming a block for an office rather than a service is a choice you only make when the office is the thing that matters.
DADA_FLR_OFFICE_3is a building's worth of addresses, recorded as such, at a company that spent most of its history in Florence rather than Milan or Rome. - Listing the board as a registry contact is unusual and slightly wonderful. Address registrations normally list engineers; putting "Direzione" in the record means somebody decided that whoever comes asking about this address space should be able to reach the people who answer for it, not only the people who configure it.

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: 442 networks and 1,772 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
