AS62669 SANS-INSTITUTE
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
SANS Institute
security training business enterprise
The AS handle SANS-INSTITUTE is held by SANS Institute.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered to "Escal Institute of Advanced Technologies, DBA SANS Institute" with netnames
CUST-66-35-60-0-24andCUST-104-193-44-0-24. - The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes and maintains 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, self-contained internal network rather than a transit or access provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of internal corporate communications, staff access, and infrastructure supporting the organization's cybersecurity training and certification operations.
Notable
- The RDAP registrants for both announced prefixes match the AS holder, confirming the space is owned and operated by the SANS Institute.
- The address inventory is compact, consisting of two /24 blocks, which is typical for a corporate entity managing its own infrastructure without large-scale external customer bases.

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 2026-10-24. 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.
