Summary

AKEP

Albania · AI-generated

government regulatory albania

AKEP-AS is operated by Autoriteti i Komunikimeve Elektronike dhe Postare (AKEP).

What it's used for

  • The address space is registered under the netname AKEP-Net and is held by the Albanian Electronic and Postal Communications Authority.
  • The AS announces a single IPv4 prefix (194.1.149.0/24) and one IPv6 prefix (2001:7f9:4::/48), totaling 256 IPv4 addresses.
  • With only 1 observed neighbour, the network functions as an isolated internal estate for the regulatory body's administrative operations rather than a transit or access provider.

Notable

  • The RDAP registrant matches the AS holder, identifying the entity as Autoriteti i Komunikimeve Elektronike dhe Postare - AKEP.
  • The inventory consists of a single /24 block and a /48 IPv6 prefix, indicating a minimal footprint dedicated to the agency's internal infrastructure.

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: 447 networks and 1,843 prefixes, as published 2026-11-01. 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.
