Summary

Simon Brecht

Germany · AI-generated

research academic germany

The AS handle BRECHT-AS is held by Simon Brecht.

What it's used for

  • The address space is registered under the netname ORG-SB629-RIPE for both announced prefixes, indicating a single, unified ownership structure.
  • The network announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes in Germany, while maintaining 14 observed routing neighbours. This ratio of a small address inventory to a moderate number of peers suggests a specialized research or academic network rather than a large-scale commercial ISP.
  • As an educational and research entity, the traffic consists of academic data exchange, research project communications, and institutional connectivity.

Notable

  • The RDAP registrants for both prefixes, 193.104.187.0/24 and 194.153.85.0/24, are listed as Simon Brecht, which aligns perfectly with the AS holder.
  • The address inventory is compact, consisting of exactly two /24 blocks, which is typical for a university or research institute managing its own internal network 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: 453 networks and 1,848 prefixes, as published 2026-11-13. 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.
