Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Tver State University (Regional Centre of Informatization)
education university legacy
TVERSU is the Tver Regional Centre of Informatization at Tver State University, in the city of Tver north-west of Moscow. The registry places it at the university's address on Zhelyabova street, and its addresses come out of 82.179.128.0/21.
What it's used for
- The university's own computing and the regional informatization centre it hosts: campus networks, faculty and student access, and the academic services a Russian regional university runs for itself.
- Historically, connecting the university and affiliated institutions in the Tver region to the wider Russian academic network.
Notable
- The AS is not currently visible in the global routing table. Its registered prefixes are not being announced, so there is nothing to geolocate or classify by traffic today. That is common for an old institutional AS that has since been folded behind a provider's routing.
- The address space stays registered to the university, which is why the AS still appears in registry-derived datasets even though it carries no live routes.
Interesting
- Regional Centres of Informatization were a Russian institutional pattern: a university hosting the computing and networking hub for its whole oblast, rather than each institution building its own. The AS is a survival of that arrangement.

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 1,772 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.
