Summary
Bureau of Economic Analysis (US Department of Commerce)
government research legacy
The network of the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), an agency of the US Department of Commerce.
What it's used for
- Networking for BEA's own systems and staff.
- BEA produces the United States' official economic statistics — most famously gross domestic product, along with personal income, trade, and industry accounts.
Notable
- Federal government address space. Hosts here belong to a statistical agency, not to consumers, hosting customers, or a commercial ISP.
- A small allocation: sized for one agency's estate rather than for any kind of redistribution.
Interesting
- BEA's output moves markets. The GDP releases that ripple through financial news are compiled inside a federal agency whose network footprint is a single small block of addresses.

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 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-21. 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.
