Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Intel
enterprise legacy
INTEL-SC-AS is one of Intel Corporation's networks, the SC pointing at Santa Clara, California, where the company is headquartered.
What it's used for
Corporate and engineering networking for Intel: internal systems, design and validation environments, and internet-facing corporate services. Around 40,000 IPv4 addresses are announced here, which is a large enterprise footprint and consistent with a company that has run its own global network since long before cloud was an option.
Notable
ARIN records the ASN from 1995. Intel is one of the semiconductor companies that was operating a serious internal network in the era when chip design workloads were among the heaviest computing jobs any private company ran, and that history shows in the size of the address holdings.
The organisation handle carries a -Z suffix, which is an ARIN records-cleanup artefact rather than evidence of a change of holder. This is still Intel.
Interesting
Intel's routing presence is spread across several ASNs reflecting different sites and business units. INTEL-SC-AS is the one bearing the company's home address.

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 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
