Hosting RIPE
Summary
Hivelocity (formerly Heficed / Digital Energy Technologies)
hosting dedicated cloud
An Autonomous System now operated by Hivelocity, a US dedicated-server and cloud hosting provider. The block was formerly Digital Energy Technologies Ltd and later Heficed, whose IP and hosting business Hivelocity absorbed.
What it's used for
- Dedicated servers, bare-metal cloud, and VPS hosting, with a large pool of IP address space leased across regions.
Notable
- An IP here identifies Hivelocity as the host, not the operator of whatever runs on it; leased-IP ranges like this see mixed reputation.
- The lineage (Digital Energy Technologies → Heficed → Hivelocity) means old WHOIS and reputation data may reference the former names.
Interesting
- Heficed specialized in IP-address leasing and monetization before its hosting assets moved to Hivelocity.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 440 networks and 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
