AS25461 RO-DCI Serviciul de Informatii Externe
Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Serviciul de Informatii Externe
government intelligence security
The AS handle RO-DCI is held by Serviciul de Informatii Externe.
What it's used for
- The address space carries the network infrastructure of Romania's foreign intelligence service, as indicated by the registrant name and the netname
DCI-NET. - The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes, with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, isolated internal network rather than a transit or access provider.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant for both prefixes is listed as
ABUSE ICI LIR, which differs from the primary registry holder name but aligns with the organization's internal administrative structure. - The address inventory consists of two /24 blocks,
193.230.198.0/24and217.156.127.0/24, both in Romania, reflecting a compact and self-contained estate.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Transit providers
1 upstream, 0 downstream and 1 adjacent networks observed; most-used upstreams first.
| AS | Network | Paths seen |

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-05, 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: 454 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. 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.
