Summary
Akamai Technologies (Akamai International)
cdn security edge
One of Akamai's core Autonomous Systems (AKAMAI-ASN2, Akamai International B.V.). Akamai runs one of the oldest and most widely distributed CDNs, with edge servers embedded deep inside thousands of networks.
What it's used for
- Caching and accelerating content, plus edge security, for large enterprises, media, banks, and software vendors.
Notable
- An Akamai IP is usually a nearby edge server serving many customers, not the origin operator of any one site.
- Akamai uses many ASNs; see siblings AS20940 and AS20189.

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 2026-10-15, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 442 networks and 1,782 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
