Education RIPE
Summary
Ufa University of Science and Technology (USATU)
education university legacy
USATU-AS is registered to the Ufa University of Science and Technology in Ufa, Bashkortostan. The handle preserves the name of Ufa State Aviation Technical University, the engineering school that merged into the new university in November 2022.
What it's used for
- Campus networking for the university's engineering and technical faculties: departmental systems, computing labs and student services.
- Hosting for institutional web and mail services.
Notable
- Institutional address space, not a service provider: roughly 1,500 IPv4 addresses across three prefixes, with two BGP neighbours. Russian universities typically reach the internet via a regional academic network rather than as transit customers in their own right.
- The
193.233.0.0/16range that most of this space comes from is historically associated with Russian academic and research networking.
Interesting
- The university also holds AS8475 under the
UUSThandle. The two adjacent numbers were registered by the two institutions that later merged, and both now sit under one holder.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
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.

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.
