Summary
CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research)
research legacy
CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, near Geneva, Switzerland,
on one of the internet's early low-numbered ASNs.
What it's used for
- Networking for the world's largest particle-physics laboratory — the Large Hadron Collider, experiments, and the researchers and data behind them.
Notable
- A major research institution's own network, not a commercial ISP.
- The low AS number reflects an early-internet allocation, handed out roughly sequentially in the internet's first years.
Interesting
- The World Wide Web was invented at CERN by Tim Berners-Lee around 1989-1991.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
Threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
