Summary

Hawk Host

Canada · AI-generated

hosting business web

HAWKHOST is operated by Hawk Host Inc., a provider of cloud web hosting, reseller, and VPS services.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries static hosting infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS records pointing to arandomserver.com (e.g., 140.99.244.128-static.reverse.arandomserver.com) and netnames like HAWKHOST and HH-63.
  • The AS announces 5120 IPv4 addresses across 16 prefixes with 5 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a hosting provider rather than a transit carrier.

Notable

  • Registrants are split between Hawk Host Inc. (netnames HAWKHOST, HH-63, CC-NET-155-94-253-0-24) and Internet Utilities NA LLC (netname NETUTILS), suggesting some prefixes are leased or historically associated with a different entity.
  • The inventory consists of 16 IPv4 prefixes, including several /23 blocks in the 198.252.0.0/16 range and scattered /24s, with no IPv6 prefixes announced.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-14, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat

Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.

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: 442 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
