Summary
Hetzner Online
hosting cloud dedicated
An Autonomous System of Hetzner Online, a large German hosting company. This block is part of Hetzner's cloud infrastructure.
What it's used for
- Cloud VPS, dedicated/root servers, and storage from Hetzner's data centers in Germany and Finland.
Notable
- An IP here identifies Hetzner as the host, not the operator of whatever runs on it — could be a legitimate service or an abusive cheap VPS.
- Hetzner announces from several ASNs; its main network is AS24940.
Interesting
- Hetzner is popular for very low-cost, high-spec dedicated and cloud servers, which also makes its ranges common in abuse/bot traffic.

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.
