Summary
New York Life Insurance Company
enterprise legacy
NYLI-AS is the corporate network of New York Life Insurance Company, the large mutual life insurer headquartered at 51 Madison Avenue in Manhattan.
What it's used for
- Enterprise networking for New York Life: head office, data centres, agency offices and the company's public-facing web and policyholder systems.
- Announces about 8,000 addresses, all drawn from
206.210.0.0/19— a single contiguous legacy block sliced into/24s.
Notable
- Reverse DNS resolves to
newyorklife.comhostnames such asmdl.giving.newyorklife.com— named corporate services, with no subscriber or hosting addressing anywhere in the block. - A financial institution running its own AS is usually about control and multi-homing: keeping customer-facing systems reachable through more than one carrier without depending on any single provider's address space.
Interesting
- The AS was registered with ARIN in 1996, when relatively few non-technology corporations bothered to take an autonomous system of their own.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-14, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
