Summary
Method Security Inc
security ipv6 business
AS22503 is operated by Method Security Inc.
What it's used for
- The address space consists exclusively of two IPv6 prefixes:
2605:b00::/42and2605:b00:800::/42. - With zero IPv4 addresses announced and only two observed neighbours, the inventory suggests a specialized or internal network rather than a large-scale access or transit provider.
Notable
- The registry holder is listed as METHOD-01, which aligns with the operator name Method Security Inc.
- The address inventory is minimal, containing only two IPv6 blocks with no IPv4 presence.

Peering at a glance
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 2026-10-14, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 442 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
