Summary

SITA

South Africa · AI-generated

government it south-africa

SITA-AS is operated by State Information Technology Agency SOC Ltd.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries government infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as 164.151.64.0.static.gov.za and registrants including Government of South Africa and Cape Provincial Administration.
  • With 266752 IPv4 addresses announced across 22 prefixes and only 1 observed neighbour, the network functions as a large internal government estate rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants align with the announcer, showing Government of South Africa for the largest block and Cape Provincial Administration for multiple 163.195.x.x prefixes.
  • SITA was established in 1999 to consolidate and coordinate South Africa's state information technology resources.
  • The inventory includes a mix of large blocks like 164.146.0.0/15 and smaller /24s, with some 163.195.x.x addresses showing reverse DNS pointing to incorrectly.delegated.to.aztec.co.za.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-19, 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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
