Why this verdict

Evidence and analysis

VerdictIQ AIGenerated from 26 deterministic signals

825testsites[.]com is classified as suspicious with a risk score of 65/100: ambiguous posture; signals suggest concern but lack convergent evidence. The recommended downstream action is alert_only.

The risk model observed 26 signals (including 9 core signals) across 5 taxonomy groups (DNS History, WHOIS, HTTP Crawling, and others). The strongest indicators are Flagged by Security Vendors, Critical SSL CA Issue, Low-Control General Hosting Network, plus 23 additional supporting signals. Each signal carries its own trigger evidence and direction; signal fusion drives the calibrated tier assignment.

Recommended response. Surface to analyst review or SIEM correlation. Evidence is strong enough to warrant attention but not strong enough to block without context. For active investigation, run POST /verdict with the indicator to confirm the verdict against the current state of the domain. VerdictIQ's scoring recomputes today's signals on every call.

VerdictIQ AI re-states deterministic signal evidence as natural language. The verdict itself comes from the calibrated risk model, not the AI layer. Re-runs are stable and explainable.

  • Flagged by Security VendorscoreThreat IntelligenceIt means that one or more commercial security vendors, including antivirus engines, sandboxes, or threat intelligence providers, have classified or reported the domain as malicious.
  • Critical SSL CA IssuecoreHTTP CrawlingIt means that the SSL/TLS certificate presented by the domain failed critical validation checks.
  • Low-Control General Hosting NetworkcoreDNS HistoryIt indicates that the ASN belongs to hosting environments statistically associated with higher abuse rates, weak onboarding controls, or historically malicious operations.
  • SSL Hostname MismatchcoreHTTP CrawlingIt means the SSL/TLS certificate’s Common Name (CN) or Subject Alternative Name (SAN) does not match the accessed domain.
  • Listed in Malware SourcescoreThreat IntelligenceIt means that the domain has appeared in public or open-source malware intelligence feeds.
  • IP on BlacklistcoreThreat IntelligenceIt means the IP address appears in at least one threat intelligence blacklist, indicating it has been associated with suspicious or malicious activity such as spam, scanning or malware hosting.

  • Newly-Issued SSL CertificateHTTP CrawlingIt indicates that the SSL certificate associated with the domain has been newly created or issued.
  • Limited Web Structure DetectedHTTP CrawlingIt means the domain hosts only a few subpages or internal links.
  • IP Blacklisted Recently (High Freshness)Threat IntelligenceIt means the IP has appeared in one or more threat intelligence blacklist datasets, indicating that it has been associated with abusive or malicious activity such as spam, scanning, botnet traffic…

  • Stable NS Usage Long TermDNS HistoryIt shows that the domain has maintained the same nameserver configuration without fluctuations, suggesting predictable and well-managed DNS infrastructure.
  • Strict-Policy RIR RegionDNS HistoryIt indicates that the ASN is allocated by a regional internet registry known for strict allocation controls and strong abuse-handling processes, providing supportive safe context for the…
  • Private Certificate Authority (CA) Signed SSL DetectedHTTP CrawlingIt means that the SSL/TLS certificate in use was issued by a private or internal Certificate Authority rather than a globally recognized CA.
  • Country-Level IP Geolocation CentralizationDNS HistoryIt indicates that all currently active IP addresses of a domain are geographically concentrated in a single location scope, typically within one country.
  • Paid Public NS Usage Premium ProviderDNS HistoryIt indicates that the domain is backed by a paid, reputable DNS provider rather than free or disposable nameservers.
