AS4387 Secretaria de Ciencia y Tecnologia - Red Cientific
Unclassified LACNIC
Summary
Secretaría de Ciencia y Tecnología — Red Científica (Argentina)
education research legacy
Registered to Argentina's national science-and-technology secretariat in Buenos Aires, this ASN carries a scientific and academic network. The registry name reads "Secretaria de Ciencia y Tecnologia - Red Cientific", truncated from the Spanish for "Scientific Network".
What it's used for
- Networking for Argentina's public science and technology system — research institutes, laboratories, and the agencies that coordinate them.
- Registry records place the holder on Godoy Cruz in Buenos Aires, at the site of the country's science and technology complex.
Notable
- Research and academic address space rather than commercial or consumer: IPs here are most likely institutional hosts belonging to publicly funded science organisations.
- The record is administered by LACNIC today and goes back to a 1995 registration, made when Latin America's number resources were still handled from the ARIN region — LACNIC itself did not exist until 2002.
Interesting
- Argentina's science portfolio has been reorganised between secretariat and ministry status more than once since this record was created, but the registry name has stayed as first written. It is a reminder to read a network's organisation record for what it is, not for what its name last claimed.

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: 442 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.
