Summary

AIMES

United Kingdom · AI-generated

hosting cloud business nhs

The AS handle is ARROWNET and the holder is AIMES Management Services Ltd.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries cloud and data centre infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as xxhost-37-48-245-254.aimes.net and host-195-88-100-128.aimes.net.
  • The network announces 5632 IPv4 addresses across 8 prefixes and maintains 2 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a hosting or cloud service provider rather than a transit carrier.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of web and API endpoints, cloud workloads, and business IT services, including specific allocations for NHS entities as indicated by the UKNHS-RYD netname.

Notable

  • Registrants for the majority of prefixes are listed as AIMES Management Services Ltd, while the two 212.196.217.0/24 and 212.196.218.0/24 blocks are registered under Abuse Role with the netname UKNHS-RYD.
  • The address inventory is a mix of larger blocks like 37.48.240.0/21 and smaller /24 allocations, reflecting a diverse portfolio of cloud and enterprise services.

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 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-22. 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.
