A Flexential network block (ASN-FLEXENTIAL), registered to the former ViaWest "Colorado" entity. Flexential is a major US colocation and data-center company formed from the merger of Peak 10 and ViaWest.
What it's used for
- Colocation, interconnection, managed and cloud hosting, and data-center services across a broad US footprint.
Notable

Interesting
- Flexential was created in 2017 when Peak 10 and ViaWest combined; this ASN carries ViaWest's legacy Colorado registration.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
