You have mentioned AS8075 (Microsoft), but with a comment of "Corp MSN"?. It's definitely using Azure (whether compromised or rented is something that I can't ascertain). The MSN here is due to legacy: it stands for MicroSoft Network (back in the days that MS is also an American ISP, although it seems that they're still a dial-up ISP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSN_Dial-up https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSN_Dial-up).
Also, Contabo Asia (AS141995) is misclassified as in Germany. Although they are German, that AS is exclusively used for their Singaporean operations.
- fasterthanlime 5y agoThanks for the context, I fixed those up. This was my first time looking up AS for additional info and it was a lot of fun.
- zinekeller 5y agoNo problem, unfortunately some AS numbers don't map up to the expected company name either because the company was acquired by a bigger company later or just not bothering to keep the Whois information accurate. I only knew that Contabo is operating in Singapore by chance (and due to IPv4 exhaustion they used their previous German addresses for their subsidiary) and the history of MSN.
