Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance
finance business
One block, one upstream, and a reverse name that says which service is listening.
What it's used for
- A life insurer's network. A single IPv4
/24announced from the United States, no IPv6, and a single observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
- One of three sampled addresses answered, and the name identifies the machine as an interface endpoint for a line of business rather than deriving from the address.
- The netname is the company's initials with a counter, and the registrant is the full registered name.
- The AS handle spells the entire company name out in hyphens, one of the longest in this range.
- The routing history begins in 2000.
Interesting
- A functional reverse name on an insurer's only block is a disclosure worth noting. It tells anyone who looks up the address that an application interface sits there, which is a starting point that costs nothing to obtain and would otherwise take probing to find.
- The same holder is written three ways across three fields: initials with a counter, the full legal name, and the full name hyphenated. None of them is derivable from another by rule.
- One block behind one upstream is the thinnest arrangement a company can have while still running its own AS number. Everything reachable here depends on a single transit relationship, and the number exists so the addresses survive changing it.

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: 454 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. 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.
