Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Vector Security
security business us
The AS handle VECTORSEC is held by Vector Security Inc.
What it's used for
- The address space carries the netname
EXPEDIENT-16, registered to Expedient, indicating the IP block is leased from a hosting provider rather than owned directly by the security firm. - The network announces a single IPv4 prefix, 209.114.186.0/24, comprising 256 addresses, with 0 IPv6 prefixes.
- With only 2 observed neighbours, the low neighbour count relative to the address block suggests a small, dedicated corporate or branch network rather than a transit or large-scale access provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of internal corporate communications and security system endpoints for Vector Security’s branch locations and authorized dealers, not public subscriber eyeballs.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant for the announced prefix is Expedient, which differs from the AS holder Vector Security Inc, consistent with a leased IP space arrangement.
- Vector Security Inc is an electronic security company in the United States that provides intelligent security solutions to residential and business customers through a network of branches and authorized dealers.
- The address inventory is minimal, consisting of a single /24 block, which fits the profile of a small internal corporate estate rather than a large infrastructure deployment.

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 2026-10-13, 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: 440 networks and 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
