IT-PZSI Istituto Poligrafico E Zecca Dello Stato - Societa' Per Azioni In Breve "IPZS S.P.A"

IPZS holds AS211290 in public registry data and provides state-mandated trust services. If the ASN were to become operationally active, hosting trust or identity platforms, the institute would become a critical dependency for Italian e-government digital identity and authentication functions, making it relevant for infrastructure dependency mapping.

Control Surface

Numbering resources: The only publicly visible internet number resource is AS211290; no IP prefixes or contact handles are available in the current evidence set.

Signal Map

Why tracked: IPZS holds AS211290 in public registry data and provides state-mandated trust services. If the ASN were to become operationally active, hosting trust or identity platforms, the institute would become a critical dependency for Italian e-government digital identity and authentication functions, making it relevant for infrastructure dependency mapping.
Object role: The institute operates as a state supplier delivering secure physical products (currency, official documents, identity cards) and has expanded into digital trust services, including electronic signatures and certified delivery. Its registry-level presence in RIPE Stat suggests that it may operate or plan to operate internet infrastructure, but the available public evidence does not yet confirm active network operations.
Impact note: If AS211290 were used to host IPZS’s trust or identity platforms, a network outage or misoperation could impact e-government functions, including qualified certificate issuance and electronic document authentication. Currently, the impact is speculative because no active BGP announcements or prefix assignments have been observed.
