Summary

Vida Optics

Bulgaria · AI-generated

isp regional bg

VIDA-OPTICS is operated by Vida Optics TVV Ltd.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries regional broadband access traffic, evidenced by netnames such as BG-OPTILINK-20100330 and VIDA-OPTICS and reverse DNS pointers to bdincom.bg.
  • The AS announces 17,664 IPv4 addresses across 13 prefixes while maintaining 10 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a regional access provider rather than a transit carrier.
  • As a regional ISP in Vidin, the traffic consists primarily of subscriber eyeballs and local business connectivity.

Notable

  • Registrants for the largest prefixes are consistently Vida optics TVV Ltd., aligning with the AS holder.
  • The inventory is composed of multiple /20, /21, and /22 blocks, including distinct ranges in 178.75.0.0/16, 178.239.0.0/16, and 89.106.0.0/16.

Reputation

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: 448 networks and 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-11-04. 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.
