Summary
Riscom S.A.
isp legacy
Riscom S.A. (AS8474) is an internet service provider in Chișinău, Moldova,
operating on the riscom.net domain. It is one of the country's longer-standing
independent operators.
What it's used for
- Internet access and fixed-line telephony for customers in Chișinău and the surrounding area; the company states it operates only within Moldova.
- Hosting for the provider's own web, mail and DNS services.
Notable
- A small network by any measure: seven contiguous
/24s (about 1,800 IPv4 addresses) in195.138.96.0/21, a single upstream and no downstream customers. - Reverse DNS follows a plain
NN-NN-NNN-NNN.riscom.netpattern across the whole range, so the space is clearly the operator's own rather than third-party address stock.
Interesting
- The AS is registered in Moldova, but Riscom's contiguous
195.138.96.0/21block and its low AS number both date to an era when a national ISP could be numbered out of a single RIPE/21.
