Summary
Garant (NPP Garant-Service)
enterprise legacy
Garant (GARANTSERVICE-AS) — the network of NPP Garant-Service, the Russian company behind the Garant legal-reference system, one of the two dominant commercial databases of Russian law and regulation.
What it's used for
- Corporate and product infrastructure for the Garant legal database. The single announced
/22resolves entirely undergarant.ru, with hosts such asgarweb.garant.ruand named router and service machines.
Notable
- A name trap: the registered legal entity is "OOO NPP Garant-Service University", and the word University in that name has nothing to do with higher education. This is a commercial legal-information publisher, not an academic network.
- No subscriber pools, no hosting customers — one prefix, one company, one product. Enterprise space.
Interesting
- Russian legal practice runs on subscription reference systems rather than open publication of statute, which is why a legal-database publisher ends up operating an autonomous system at all.

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 2026-10-21, 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 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-22. 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.
