Summary
PlanetHoster
hosting web infrastructure
PLANETHOSTER-8 is operated by PlanetHoster.
What it's used for
- The address space carries web hosting infrastructure, evidenced by netnames such as
CA-PLANETHOSTER-20120831,FR-PLANETCLOUD-19910128, andPHBLOCK201, and reverse DNS entries likehybrid3681.fr.ns.planethoster.netandcore-cdg01.as53589.net. - The AS announces 11,264 IPv4 addresses across 12 prefixes and maintains 61 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a hosting provider connecting to multiple upstreams and peers rather than an access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of web server responses, DNS queries, and management traffic for the 500,000 hosted websites managed by PlanetHoster from data centers in France, Switzerland, and Canada.
Notable
- Registrants align with the announcer, including
Groupe Barizco Inc.,PlanetCloud SAS,PlanetCloud SA, andPlanetHoster, withCYBERIMPACT INC.appearing on three smaller prefixes. - The address inventory is fragmented across multiple /21, /22, /23, and /24 blocks, reflecting historical acquisitions and the consolidation of infrastructure under the PlanetHoster and PlanetCloud brands.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
