Summary
Linode (Akamai Connected Cloud)
hosting cloud compute
Linode (AKAMAI-LINODE-AP, now Akamai Connected Cloud) — a long-running developer cloud offering simple Linux virtual machines, acquired by Akamai.
What it's used for
- Affordable cloud VMs for websites, apps, and developer projects, now integrated with Akamai's edge/CDN platform.
Notable
- A self-service cloud: an IP here means Linode/Akamai is the host, not the workload's owner.
- Akamai acquired Linode in 2022 to add compute to its distribution/CDN network.
Interesting
- The distribution CDN (Akamai AS20940) and this compute cloud are now the same company, but they remain distinct network functions.

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: 448 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
1 IC3 indicators addresses in this network appear in FBI IC3 cybersecurity advisories.
| Prefix | Advisory | Published |
|---|---|---|
66.175.220.111 | FortiBleed Operations Continue Targeting Exposed Systems Leading to Reports of Lockouts | 2026-10-06 |
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
