education university hbcu
WVSU is the autonomous system for West Virginia State University.
What it's used for
- The space carries university network traffic, identified by the netname
WVSU-NETWORKand registrantWest Virginia State University. - The AS announces 256 IPv4 addresses across 1 prefix (
192.73.23.0/24) with 1 observed neighbour, a ratio typical of a single-site institutional network rather than a transit or large-scale access provider. - Traffic consists of campus users, faculty, and staff accessing the internet, as well as internal university services hosted on the campus network.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant
West Virginia State Universitymatches the AS holder and netnameWVSU-NETWORK, confirming consistent ownership. - West Virginia State University was granted university status in 2004, changing its name from West Virginia State College.
- The address inventory is a single /24 block, representing a compact, self-contained estate for the campus.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
