Summary
Lanka Communication Services (Pvt) Ltd.
isp legacy
LANKA-COM is Lanka Communication Services (Pvt) Ltd — LankaCom — a Sri Lankan internet and data services provider based in Colombo.
What it's used for
- Internet connectivity, data services, and hosting for organizations in Sri Lanka, weighted toward corporate and enterprise customers rather than consumer broadband.
- AS5087 announces roughly 21,000–23,000 IPv4 addresses.
Notable
- The AS number sits in the ARIN-era range but the resources are administered through APNIC, the registry for the Asia-Pacific region — a common shape for early Asian networks whose records were later transferred to APNIC.
- LankaCom is one of the long-established names in Sri Lankan internet infrastructure, from a period when the country had only a handful of providers.

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: 442 networks and 1,782 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
