Summary
VK
social media business russia
VKONTAKTE-SPB-AS is operated by VK.
What it's used for
- The address space carries web and media infrastructure, evidenced by netnames
VKONTAKTE-FRONTandRU-VKONTAKTE-20090812, and reverse DNS entries likesrv0-80-213-95.vk.com. - The AS announces 58,112 IPv4 addresses across 23 prefixes and 8 IPv6 prefixes, with 50 observed neighbours, indicating a large-scale content delivery and service network rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of user requests to VK's social networking, video, and messaging platforms, as well as internal service endpoints for its digital ecosystem.
Notable
- Registrants consistently identify as
Vkontakte Network Control Center (NCC),Vkontakte ADM, orLLC VK, aligning with the announcer. - VKontakte was rebranded to VK, reflecting its expansion beyond social networking into a broader digital services group.
- The inventory is dominated by large blocks in the 95.213.0.0/16 and 87.240.128.0/17 ranges, with smaller allocations in 93.186.0.0/16 and 79.137.0.0/16.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 436 networks and 1,771 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.
