TWDS-AS-TW is the autonomous system for Taiwan Digital Streaming Co.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries corporate and service infrastructure, indicated by netnames such as TWDS-NET, TWDS-ANYCAST, ARCHE, and JFT.
  • The AS announces 2816 IPv4 addresses and 43 IPv6 prefixes across 7 IPv4 blocks, while maintaining 140 observed neighbours, a ratio that suggests a business network with significant peering relationships rather than a pure transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants vary across the inventory, including IRT-TWDS-1-TW, IRT-JFT-TW, IRT-ARCHE-TW, IRT-TWDS-TW, and IRT-ZAT-TW, indicating a mix of owned and potentially leased or acquired address space.
  • The inventory consists of seven distinct IPv4 prefixes, with the largest being /23 blocks, alongside a finely subdivided IPv6 allocation under the 2400:70e0::/37 range.

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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
