Summary
US Department of Defense — DISA Computing Services
government military legacy
A US Department of Defense network from the block DNIC-ASBLK-05800-06055, registered to the DoD Network Information Center (DNIC). Its space is used by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Computing Services Directorate — reverse DNS across several of its ranges resolves under csd.disa.mil.
What it's used for
- Enterprise data-centre and application hosting for DoD components. DISA's Computing Services Directorate runs the Defense Enterprise Computing Centers (DECCs), which provide processing, storage and systems management for the services, agencies and combatant commands.
- Its largest block,
131.77.0.0/16, is registered under the netnameDECC-OGDEN— the DECC at Hill Air Force Base, Utah.
Notable
- A government / DoD network. Functionally this is hosting, but it is government-operated infrastructure serving DoD, not a commercial provider.
- The inventory mixes legacy
/16s (131.77,156.112) with214.xspace from the DoD-held/8s, plus a few IPv6/48s. - Part of a contiguous run of ASNs (5800–6055) held by the DoD Network Information Center.

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.
