Summary

Optibit

Russia · AI-generated

hosting legacy

RU-OPTIBIT is the network of Optibit (registered to Optizon Ltd), a hosting and data-centre operator based in Krasnoyarsk, Siberia. It sells shared web hosting, VDS/VPS, dedicated servers and colocation out of its own local facility.

What it's used for

  • Web hosting, virtual and dedicated servers, and colocation for Russian business customers, largely regional.
  • The AS is small and self-contained: about 1,500 IPv4 addresses across six /24s (185.25.60.0/22 and two 91.230.21x.0/24 blocks) plus an IPv6 /32.

Notable

  • rDNS is a clean hosting signature: gateway and platform hosts under optibit.ru (gw.optibit.ru, c7600.optibit.ru, co-cifromig.optibit.ru) interleaved with the domains of hosted customers — a taxi service, a pharmacy chain, assorted .ru businesses. Nothing resembling subscriber or dial-up pools.
  • Addresses in this AS geolocate to a Krasnoyarsk data centre and belong to hosted sites; they are not end-user or residential space.

Interesting

  • RIPE records the current registration of the aut-num in 2011, so the low number looks reissued rather than held since the early internet. Card it as the modern Siberian hosting provider it is.

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 1,778 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
