Summary

United States of America · AI-generated

business isp us

The AS handle FORTRESSITX is held by FortressITX.

What it's used for

  • The address space is registered under the netname FORTRESSITX for the majority of prefixes, with some blocks under NET65 registered to the American Registry for Internet Numbers.
  • The network announces 90368 IPv4 addresses across 84 prefixes, with only 4 observed neighbours, indicating a role as an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants for the largest prefixes are primarily FortressITX, though some blocks in the 65.98.0.0/16 range are registered to the American Registry for Internet Numbers under the netname NET65.
  • The address inventory consists of multiple /19, /20, and /21 blocks within the 69.72.0.0/16, 65.98.0.0/16, 208.116.0.0/16, and 216.67.0.0/16 ranges.

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 1,781 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.
