Summary

Banco de Fomento Angola

Angola · AI-generated

business banking corporate angola

BFA is the autonomous system for Banco de Fomento Angola, a major private commercial bank in Angola.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries internal corporate infrastructure, evidenced by the reverse DNS record pp.bfanetempresas.ao which points to the bank's enterprise network.
  • The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes with 2 observed neighbours, indicating a small, self-contained internal network rather than a transit or access provider.

Notable

  • Both registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as Banco de Fomento Angola, S.A, matching the AS holder and confirming direct ownership of the address space.
  • The bank was established in 1990 as Banco de Fomento Exterior and was acquired by Banco Português de Investimento in 1996, after which it was renamed Banco de Fomento Angola.
  • The inventory consists of two /24 blocks (196.11.189.0/24 and 196.216.161.0/24) with no IPv6 prefixes, representing a modest footprint typical of a single corporate entity.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-25, 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: 443 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. 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.
