About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Medium  ·  6 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address starting with 00:1A:47 belongs to Agami Systems, Inc., a venture-funded enterprise storage vendor, and would typically be seen on a rack-mounted network-attached storage (NAS) or storage-area network (SAN) appliance rather than a consumer or IoT device.

Agami Systems was founded in April 2003 in San Jose, California, by Kumar Sreekanti and was headquartered in Sunnyvale, California — the same city recorded in the IEEE registry address for this block. The company built unified NAS/SAN storage arrays for data centers, most notably the AIS3000 and AIS6000 product lines.

Agami ceased operations abruptly on July 28, 2008, reportedly after a $45 million Series C funding round failed to close amid the 2008 financial downturn, affecting roughly 80-100 employees across its Sunnyvale and Hyderabad, India offices. Only one OUI block, 00:1A:47, is registered to the company; no additional MA-M or MA-S sub-blocks were found under this name.

No CVE record is listed in the NVD for Agami as of August 2026, and no malware or botnet association surfaced in a web search of the vendor or its product names. Any surviving deployed unit would run firmware unmaintained since the company's 2008 closure.
