Summary
Krasovskii Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics, UB RAS
education research legacy
URAN-AS belongs to the N. N. Krasovskii Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, in Yekaterinburg. It carries the Ural academic network, and its reverse DNS resolves under uran.ru.
What it's used for
- Connectivity for the institutes of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences — research groups, scientific computing and institutional systems.
- Announces a contiguous run of
/24s inside195.19.128.0/19. Router reverse DNS follows an academic-network pattern (r1-135.uran.ruand similar), not a subscriber one.
Notable
- A research-institute network, not a service provider: the address space sits in laboratories and institute machine rooms, with no consumer or hosting product behind it.
- The institute is a centre for computational mathematics and hosts high-performance computing resources for the region's researchers.
Interesting
- The handle is a trap for the unwary. URAN here is Ural, in Russia. There is an entirely separate and unrelated Ukrainian academic network also called URAN (the Association of Users of the Ukrainian Research and Academic Network) on a different AS number. Same four letters, different country, different institution.

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 1,782 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
