Summary
Cifrova Kabelna Korporacia (TCV)
isp telecom business
A cable operator's four blocks, one of them registered to a company with a different name.
What it's used for
- A Bulgarian cable and internet operator. 13,056 addresses across four IPv4 prefixes, three observed BGP neighbours, and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- Everything sits in
94.190: a/19, a/20, a/23and a/24. - Netnames vary by block:
TCV,BG-CCC-20080826, andINTERBILDregistered to Telecommunication Company Varna EAD. - The RDAP lookup for
94.190.192.0/23failed. - Reverse names put the last octet first:
94.190.183.254answers asip-254-183.tcv.bg.
Interesting
- The reverse names are built backwards, last octet then third, which is the order
in-addr.arpauses rather than the order humans write. A zone generated straight from the delegation comes out this way; one written from a list of addresses does not. It is a reliable tell for how the DNS was produced. - Three names for what is evidently one operator — the AS handle, the cable corporation, and a telecom company named for the city of Varna — is the residue of a regional cable business assembled from smaller ones. The registry keeps whichever entity signed for each block.
- 13,056 addresses against three neighbours is an access network, and the mixture of block sizes says it grew in uneven steps: a
/19when subscribers arrived in bulk, then a/23and a/24topping it up.

Classification and threat
Residential Fixed-line consumer ISP. Addresses here are homes.
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 1,778 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
