Summary

Universo Online (UOL)

Brazil · AI-generated

hosting legacy

Universo Online S.A. (UOL) is one of Brazil's largest internet companies: a major web portal and, through UOL Host, a large hosting and cloud provider.

What it's used for

  • Serving UOL's own portal, media and application properties, and — dominantly — its hosting and cloud business: shared hosting, VPS, dedicated servers and cloud instances sold to Brazilian customers.
  • Announces around 220,000 IPv4 addresses across roughly 143 prefixes, plus a large set of IPv6 /48s, mostly in Brazilian 200.x, 186.x and 187.x space.

Notable

  • Reverse DNS is the giveaway: …clouduol.com.br and …static.uol.com.br dominate the address space. That is hosting addressing — servers with stable names — not a residential subscriber pool.
  • Some blocks still carry …speedy.speeduol.com.br reverse names, a fossil of UOL's consumer access era when it resold broadband; the eyeball business is no longer what this AS is primarily about.

Interesting

  • UOL grew out of the mid-1990s Brazilian dial-up and portal boom, and it is one of the few operators from that generation still running a major network under the same brand.

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: 442 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.
