Summary

Fars News Agency

Iran (Islamic Republic of) · AI-generated

news media iran corporate

FNA is operated by Fars News Agency Cultural Arts Institute.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries the agency's own infrastructure, as indicated by the netnames IR-FARSNEWS-20100406 and IR-FARSNEWS-20190926 registered to the Fars News Agency Cultural Arts Institute.
  • The AS announces 2560 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio consistent with a small internal corporate estate rather than a transit or access network.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of web endpoints and internal services for the Fars News Agency, a major Iranian news outlet.

Notable

  • Both announced prefixes are registered to the Fars News Agency Cultural Arts Institute, matching the AS holder.
  • The address inventory is compact, comprising one /21 and one /23 block, typical for a single organisation's operational needs.

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: 454 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-09. 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.
