What it's used for
- The address space carries dedicated server and co-location infrastructure, evidenced by registrant netnames such as
UK-UKSERVERS-20070831and reverse DNS entries likeno.rdns.ukservers.com. - The AS announces 115,968 IPv4 addresses across 262 prefixes and 10 IPv6 prefixes, maintaining 81 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a hosting provider offering direct connectivity to customers.
- Traffic consists of web and API endpoints, dedicated server workloads, and co-located equipment for clients seeking high-performance hardware in London data centres.
Notable
- All sampled registrants are
UK Dedicated Servers Limited, matching the AS holder and confirming a single corporate entity manages the inventory. - The inventory is finely subdivided into numerous /21 and /22 blocks, reflecting a segmented corporate estate for individual server allocations rather than a monolithic block.
- Reverse DNS includes specific hostnames like
electro.watermarktech.co.ukandtta.filteringspam.org, indicating diverse customer deployments within the space.

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.
