Iraq · AI-generated

business iraq contracting

SHMS is held by Shams Sara Company for General Contracting LTD.

What it's used for

  • The space carries a single IPv4 prefix, 188.72.56.0/23, with the netname IQ-TARIK1-20090707 and registrant Tarik Al-thuraya Company For Communications Service Ltd.
  • The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 1 prefix and has 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, isolated network segment rather than a transit or large access network.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of internal corporate or leased infrastructure for the contracting entity, as no subscriber or public service indicators are present in the reverse DNS or netnames.

Notable

  • The registrant Tarik Al-thuraya Company For Communications Service Ltd. differs from the AS holder Shams Sara Company for General Contracting LTD, suggesting the address space is leased or historically allocated to a communications provider.
  • The address inventory is minimal, consisting of a single /23 block with no IPv6 prefixes announced.

Reputation

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: 455 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-11-13. 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.
