Summary
Novo Banco, S.A.
enterprise finance legacy
AS9118 belongs to Novo Banco, S.A., a major Portuguese retail and commercial bank (the successor institution carved out of Banco Espirito Santo in 2014).
What it's used for
This is a single-purpose corporate banking network. It announces one IPv4 /24 (194.145.121.0/24, 256 addresses) with one observed neighbour and no IPv6, the minimal footprint of an enterprise that holds an ASN for provider-independent, multi-homable address space rather than to run a public network. The space carries the bank's own internet-facing and inter-connectivity infrastructure.
Notable
- A single /24 and one neighbour is characteristic of enterprise PI space, not an ISP or hosting operation.
- No PTRs were returned on the address sampled, unremarkable for a closed corporate banking block.
Interesting
Although the prefix has been announced from this AS since around 2000, the holder name reflects the post-2014 Novo Banco entity; the address space itself carries the institution's banking infrastructure.

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: 443 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. 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.
