Summary

HQS High Quality Software GmbH

Germany · AI-generated

business software germany

HQS is the AS handle for HQS High Quality Software GmbH.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries corporate infrastructure, evidenced by the netname HQS-NET and reverse DNS entries pointing to rev.hqs.de.
  • The network announces 1024 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, self-contained business network rather than a transit or access provider.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of internal corporate endpoints for a software company located in Seevetal, Germany.

Notable

  • Registrants are mixed: one prefix is registered to Hostmaster worldweb Oerke Internetkommunikations oHG; Susanne Oerke while the other is registered to Hostmaster High Quality Software GmbH; HQS High Quality Software GmbH.
  • The address inventory is small and subdivided into two /23 blocks, consistent with an internal corporate estate.

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: 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.
