Summary

Gerkon

Russian Federation · AI-generated

isp residential cable russia

The AS handle GERKON-AS is held by Gerkon LTD.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business internet access, evidenced by netnames GERKON-NET and RADIOTEKHNIKA-NET and a reverse DNS record pointing to dynamic.91.192.170.254.vpcit.ru.
  • The network announces 9 IPv4 prefixes totaling 9984 addresses and maintains 38 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a regional access provider rather than a transit carrier.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs and local business endpoints served by Gerkon's cable and DSL infrastructure in the Russian Federation.

Notable

  • Registrants are split between Gerkon LTD and TTC Radiotechnika LTD, with the latter holding the RADIOTEKHNIKA-NET and RU-TTCRADIOTECHNIKA-* netnames.
  • The address inventory is finely subdivided into nine distinct prefixes, reflecting site-by-site segmentation typical of a regional ISP managing multiple local exchanges or service areas.

Classification and threat

Residential Fixed-line consumer ISP. Addresses here are homes.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
