What is .SU?
.su was assigned as the country code top-level domain for the Soviet Union on September 19, 1990. It remains in use today, even though the Soviet Union itself no longer exists, and is administered by the Russian Institute for Public Networks (RIPN, or RosNIIROS in Russian transcription).

Have you been impacted by current events in Europe?
Unfortunately, we have. We operate from New York and started to experience difficulties in March 2022.
