Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Eviden Austria (Atos)
enterprise managed-services legacy
The RIR handle reads "ATOS IT Solutions and Services", but the current organisation object is Eviden Austria GmbH — the Austrian arm of Atos's Eviden division. Its registered address is Siemensstrasse 92 in Vienna, and its contacts still carry Siemens AG affiliations.
What it's used for
- Outsourced and managed IT. Around 2,000 IPv4 addresses across seven small prefixes carrying customer systems that Eviden runs on their behalf. The rDNS is a roll-call of client estates rather than one company:
services.siemens.at,pat-a4b.siemens.at,fw-sie-andritz1-1.siemens.at,remedy.nsn.com,webdispatcher1.nlmk.admingate.local,test-go.energylink.at. - The recurring
admingate.net/admingate.localdomain is the outsourcer's own management gateway naming, applied across otherwise unrelated customers — the tell that one operator is running all of them.
Notable
- Classify by what the space carries, not by the customer names in the rDNS. Seeing
siemens.atornlmkhere does not mean the addresses belong to Siemens or NLMK; they are managed estates inside an IT-services provider's blocks. Only194.138.12.0/24is genuinely Siemens-registered (DE-SIEMENS-19950123), routed here by arrangement. - The prefixes are a mix of PI, PA and legacy space still labelled
ATOS-NET,ATOS CEE,EARNE-ATandADMINGATE-NET, reflecting layers of corporate history: Siemens IT Solutions and Services became part of Atos, and Atos later spun the business into Eviden.
Interesting
- The Vienna street address is Siemensstrasse — the company moved out of Siemens' ownership but not out of its building.

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.
