Summary

Artfiles New Media GmbH

Germany · AI-generated

hosting legacy

ARTFILES-AS is Artfiles New Media GmbH, a Hamburg web-hosting, cloud and colocation provider operating out of its own data centres in the city.

What it's used for

  • Shared web hosting, managed servers, cloud and colocation — the announced space is server estate, not subscriber access.
  • Sampled rDNS lands on hosting-style names such as back3231.c.artfiles.de, the house naming for its Hamburg machines.

Notable

  • The inventory is anchored on a large legacy 212.53.0.0/17 plus a long tail of smaller RIPE blocks (212.48.96.0/19, 212.72.160.0/19, 217.72.128.0/20, 80.252.96.0/20 and others).
  • Not all of that space wears Artfiles' own naming. Sampled PTRs also return core0.hh.omc.net, 100-224-ip.omc.net, ge2-100.core1.hh1.tegtmeier.net and a customer name (elbe.pc-feuerwehr.de) — other Hamburg networks whose blocks are routed through this AS. Treat an address here as hosted-in-Hamburg, not necessarily operated by Artfiles.

Interesting

  • The hh1 / hh labels in the router names are the German airport-style code for Hamburg, a common convention in that city's networks.

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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
