AS5536 Xyberdata - Xyberdata
Unclassified APNIC
Summary
Xyberdata
hosting legacy
AS5536 is held by Xyberdata, a small network and cyber-security services operator based in Mauritius. The registry record carries the as-name LEGACY and describes the holder as "Xyberdata, f/k/a 101 Systems".
What it's used for
- Network and hosting services out of Mauritius, alongside the company's cyber-security consulting work. Xyberdata announces a handful of AFRINIC /24s and also holds AS37725.
Notable
- Despite sitting in an AS block that IANA assigned to the RIPE NCC, the object for this ASN lives in the AFRINIC database, and its address blocks are AFRINIC
102.xspace registered to Mauritius. That RIR mismatch is the fingerprint of a legacy number later brought under African administration. - The company's IPv4 blocks are registered with AFRINIC status
ASSIGNED ANYCAST, which is unusual for a network this size and points at anycast service delivery rather than ordinary customer addressing. - The
f/k/a 101 Systemsnote in the registry means the number changed hands, so the low value should not be read as an early-internet pedigree for the current holder.
Interesting
- Mauritius is a comparatively well-connected node for the region, and small independent operators there tend to specialise rather than compete for mass-market broadband.

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: 448 networks and 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-11-03. 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.
