Summary

Nerdscave

Germany · AI-generated

hosting business germany

The AS handle NERDSCAVE is held by Nerdscave (Moritz Mantel).

What it's used for

  • The address space carries hosting infrastructure, evidenced by the reverse DNS record mx.zschaber.de and netnames such as DE-GHOSTNET-20070413 and NL-NERDSCAVE-02.
  • The AS announces 1280 IPv4 addresses and 8 IPv6 prefixes, with 23 observed neighbours, indicating a small-scale hosting or business network rather than a large transit provider.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of web/API endpoints and managed services, as the operator provides KVM VPS servers, dedicated physical servers, and webspaces located in Frankfurt, Germany.

Notable

  • Registrants include both GHOSTnet GmbH and Nerdscave Moritz Mantel, with the latter matching the current AS holder.
  • The address inventory is subdivided into four IPv4 prefixes and eight IPv6 prefixes, reflecting a finely segmented internal corporate estate.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
