Autonomous system

Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Georgia Aquarium
business corporate single-site
GAAQUA is the autonomous system for Georgia Aquarium, INC.
What it's used for
- The address space carries internal corporate infrastructure, evidenced by the netname
GAI-COREon the 165.140.248.0/24 and 165.140.250.0/24 prefixes. - The AS announces 768 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and maintains 4 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a single-site corporate network rather than a transit or access provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of office workers, internal systems, and web endpoints for the Atlanta-based public aquarium.
Notable
- Registrants for the 165.140.248.0/24 and 165.140.250.0/24 prefixes are Georgia Aquarium, INC., while the 74.255.42.0/24 prefix is registered to AT&T Enterprises, LLC with the netname
BELLSNET-BLK18. - The address inventory is small and finely subdivided into three /24 blocks, reflecting the limited scale of a single physical facility.

Interconnection

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-07, 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 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-11-08. 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.
