Summary
Ural Federal University (UrFU)
education university research legacy
UrFU — the network of Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B. N. Yeltsin, in Yekaterinburg. It is one of the largest universities in Russia.
What it's used for
- Campus networking across UrFU's institutes and faculties: teaching, research, administration, libraries and student residences.
Notable
- An institutional network rather than a commercial one, serving a single (very large) university across a multi-site campus.
- UrFU was formed by merging Ural State Technical University (UPI) and Ural State University, so the network it runs today is the descendant of the academic networks those institutions built.

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 2026-10-24. 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.
