Unclassified RIPE Network Services
Summary
IRAQ-IXP
ixp transit regional infrastructure
IRAQ-IXP is operated by Civilisation Information Technology, communication and internet services Co., LTD.
What it's used for
- The address space carries infrastructure for the Iraq Internet Exchange Point, with netnames including
IQ-IRAQIXP-20071002andIQ-GCCIT-20150814. - The AS announces 768 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining 25 observed neighbours, indicating a transit or peering role rather than a large access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of interconnectivity and exchange traffic for Iraqi ISPs and businesses, facilitating local and international data exchange.
Notable
- Registrants include
Aws Husseinfor the primary prefix,ME BRIDGE TELECOM FZCOfor a secondary prefix, andAl Lawn Al Akhdar International Companyfor a third, suggesting a mix of owned and leased or partner space. - The address inventory is small and fragmented, with prefixes from different registrants, which is typical for an IXP aggregating multiple networks or managing diverse infrastructure.

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: 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.
