Core Entity Brief
| Entity | MPWiK-WROC |
|---|---|
| Public role | MPWiK-WROC is tracked because digital disruptions affecting its network administration or registered internet resources could cascade to customer portals, billing systems, and possibly operational technology networks supporting water supply. The publicly recorded ASN provides an externally visible indicator of that dependency, enabling monitoring of registry changes or new routing activity that may signal operational stress or security incidents. |

MPWiK-WROC is the RIPE registry alias for Miejskie Przedsiębiorstwo Wodociągów i Kanalizacji S.A., the municipal water and sewage utility of Wrocław, Poland, which also holds dormant autonomous system AS210262.
What It Does
- Service provision: The utility supplies drinking water and collects/treats wastewater for the city of Wrocław.
- Registry presence: The organisation holds an autonomous system number (AS210262) in the RIPE NCC registry. There is no evidence that the ASN is used to sell internet services or connect external customers; it appears to be a supportive asset for the utility's own connectivity.
Operating Snapshot
- Legal identity: MPWiK S.A. is a Polish joint-stock company (spółka akcyjna) wholly owned by the city of Wrocław, responsible for municipal water services.
- Routing status: AS210262 currently announces no BGP prefixes. The public routing footprint is limited to the registry entry.
Control Surface
- RIPE NCC registration: The aut-num object for AS210262, along with the associated organisation and abuse-contact records, can be modified by the holder. Changes to these records alter the public identity of the network resource.
- Corporate website: The mpwik.wroc.pl domain is the official public face of the utility. It describes services, announcements, and contact information, making it a surface for operational communication and reputation.
Watchpoints
- Registry record modifications: Changes to AS210262's name, contact, or organisation in RIPE would signal administrative activity and may affect how external monitors interpret the entity.
- New prefix announcements: If AS210262 begins advertising routes, it would become an active participant in BGP, potentially exposing the internal network to routing attacks and increasing its internet dependency.
- Website content shifts: The utility's website provides updates on service status and corporate information. Sudden changes, prolonged downtime, or misleading content could indicate a cyber incident or operational disruption.
