Summary
Kuwait University
education university kuwait
KUWAIT-UNIVERSITY is operated by Kuwait University.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under the netname
UKWT-NETwith registrantKUWAIT UNIVERSITY, indicating a dedicated institutional network for the university's academic and administrative infrastructure. - The AS announces 65536 IPv4 addresses across 15 prefixes, all located in Kuwait, while maintaining only 3 observed routing neighbours. This high address-to-neighbour ratio is characteristic of an internal educational network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All RDAP registrants for the largest prefixes consistently list
KUWAIT UNIVERSITYas the holder, aligning perfectly with the AS handle and registry holder. - The inventory consists of a single contiguous block within the 139.141.0.0/16 range, subdivided into 15 prefixes of varying sizes, reflecting a standard internal corporate or institutional estate segmentation.

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 2026-10-13, 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: 440 networks and 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
