Network and Security Investigation Tools for IPs, Domains, and Subnets

Move from a suspicious IP, hostname, or CIDR block to public-record facts without switching between multiple tabs.

Use ComUtil for first-pass investigation only: ASN ownership, registrar metadata, nameservers, certificate details, and deterministic subnet math. These pages do not score maliciousness or make final security verdicts.

Quick Start

Start with IP, domain, or subnet?

I already have a public IP address.

Use the IP guide when the question is who owns this address, which registry allocated it, and whether the range matches the provider you expected.

Investigate the IP

I need JSON output for one public IP lookup.

Use the API guide when you want the live /api/ip request shape, response fields, and guardrails before you automate a single-IP lookup.

Read the API guide

I started from a hostname, URL, or login domain.

Use the domain guide to review registrar data, nameservers, and SSL timing before you pivot into infrastructure ownership.

Check the domain

I need the triage order, not just one tool.

Use the workflow page when the investigation spans domain facts, IP ownership, and CIDR scope.

Open the workflow

The question is whether a whole range should be allowed or blocked.

Use the CIDR guide when you need host counts, subnet boundaries, or a safer way to reason about provider-sized ranges.

Review CIDR scope

Investigation workflow

1

Domain facts

Confirm registrar, expiration, nameservers, and certificate details when the investigation starts from a hostname.

2

IP ownership

Inspect ASN, registry, and network-range data to see whether the source belongs to the provider or geography you expected.

3

CIDR scope

Measure how large the relevant subnet is before you widen an allowlist or blocklist to a whole provider range.

4

Escalate with evidence

Carry verified public-record facts into your security review instead of relying on vague reputation assumptions.

Trust and limitations

Everything on these pages comes from public records you could query yourself: registry allocations, registrar entries, DNS answers, and the certificate a host presents.

  • Ownership tells you who holds a range or a name, not who is using it right now. Cloud and hosting ranges move between customers constantly.
  • Registrar and certificate details are supplied by the party being checked, so a valid certificate or an old domain is not proof of good intent.
  • CIDR math is exact, but a subnet boundary only tells you how large a decision is, never whether the whole range deserves it.

ComUtil reports these facts and does not score reputation. Weigh them against your own logs and threat intelligence before you allow or block anything.
