Summary
Disney Worldwide Services
media business enterprise
Three netnames, three eras of the same company, including a retired online brand.
What it's used for
- A media company's corporate network. Three IPv4
/24prefixes announced from the United States, no IPv6, and three observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- One netname pairs the brand with a two-letter site code and a two-letter marker; another adds a region code, the same marker, a country code and a counter; the third names an online division that no longer exists, with a type word and a counter.
- One registrant is an internal architecture team rather than a company, followed by an abuse role after a semicolon.
- The other two registrants name the corporate services entity, matching the AS handle's first three letters.
- Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
- Seven hundred and sixty-eight addresses is the entire announced footprint.
Interesting
- Three netnames for three blocks, each following a different convention, is a record assembled over decades. The site code, the region code and the retired division name each date their block more precisely than any timestamp field in the registry.
- A division brand surviving in a netname long after the product closed is the usual outcome. Netnames are never rewritten, because rewriting means reissuing the assignment, so the registry becomes an archive of discontinued businesses.
- Under a thousand addresses for a company of this size means almost everything public runs on infrastructure it does not route itself. This block is offices, not audiences.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-30, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 447 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-10-30. 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.
