AS52676: the C3 Desenvolvimento de Sistemas Computacionais network

AS52676 is an internet Autonomous System operated by C3 Desenvolvimento de Sistemas Computacionais (Brazil). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS52676?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS52676 was assigned to C3 Desenvolvimento de Sistemas Computacionais by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS52676 currently announces 1 IPv4 block(s), totaling 256 addresses (256 in all), registered in Brazil. Services from C3 Desenvolvimento de Sistemas Computacionais are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS52676 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS52676. That means the other end sits on the C3 Desenvolvimento de Sistemas Computacionais network (Brazil). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
