Summary

Alibaba Cloud

China · AI-generated

cloud cdn alibaba china

The AS handle TAOBAO is held by Alibaba Cloud, the cloud computing and digital technology subsidiary of Alibaba Group.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries cloud infrastructure and content delivery, evidenced by registrants Alibaba Cloud (Singapore) Private Limited and Alibaba Cloud LLC with netnames ASEPL-SG and AL-3.
  • With 175,872 IPv4 addresses and 153 IPv6 prefixes announced against 337 observed neighbours, the inventory supports a large-scale global cloud and CDN footprint rather than a simple transit or access role.

Notable

  • Registrants align with the announcer's identity, listing Alibaba Cloud (Singapore) Private Limited and Alibaba Cloud LLC for the major prefixes.
  • The registry name Taobao reflects the historical origin of the AS, which has since been rebranded and expanded to represent the broader Alibaba Cloud infrastructure.
  • The inventory consists of 261 IPv4 prefixes, including large /20 blocks in the 43.102.0.0/16 and 155.102.0.0/16 ranges, indicating a finely subdivided corporate estate.

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.
