Why this verdict

Evidence and analysis

VerdictIQ AIGenerated from 23 deterministic signals

advmob[.]cn is classified as suspicious with a risk score of 64/100: ambiguous posture; signals suggest concern but lack convergent evidence. The recommended downstream action is alert_only.

The risk model observed 23 signals (including 8 core signals) across 5 taxonomy groups (DNS History, HTTP Crawling, Popularity & Backlink, and others). The strongest indicators are Flagged by Security Vendors, Critical SSL CA Issue, Listed in Malware Sources, plus 20 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.

Top 10 of 23Showing all 23
  • 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.
  • Listed in Malware SourcescoreThreat IntelligenceIt means that the domain has appeared in public or open-source malware intelligence feeds.
  • SSL Hostname MismatchcoreHTTP CrawlingIt means the SSL/TLS certificate’s Common Name (CN) or Subject Alternative Name (SAN) does not match the accessed domain.
  • Untrusted or Misconfigured SSL CertificatecoreHTTP CrawlingIt indicates that the domain’s SSL/TLS certificate cannot be fully trusted due to issues such as expiration, incorrect configuration, mismatched hostname, or unrecognized certificate authority.
  • 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.
  • Short-Term SSL Certificate ValidityHTTP CrawlingIt means the SSL/TLS certificate of the domain has an unusually short validity period, often lasting only days or weeks.
  • Newly-Activated DomainDNS HistoryIt indicates that the domain has recently become active and started responding to DNS queries after a period of inactivity or recent registration.
  • 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.
  • Reputation Decay DomainPopularity & BacklinkIt indicates that the domain’s reputation, visibility, and traffic are steadily declining over time.
  • Recently Isolated DomainPopularity & BacklinkA domain whose harmonic centrality places it in the deep tail (very few distinct sources link to it) while PageRank is also in the mid-to-tail range.
  • Weak Popularity DomainPopularity & BacklinkIt represents a domain with limited but detectable user traffic or DNS activity.
  • Non-Public DomainHTTP CrawlingIt refers to a domain that operates with restricted accessibility, its HTTP/HTTPS services are either protected, limited to specific users, or intentionally unreachable from the public internet.
  • Large-Scale Enterprise IP BlockcoreDNS HistoryIt indicates that the IP address belongs to a large-scale, long-established, and officially allocated enterprise network.
  • Long-Registered DomaincoreWHOISIt indicates that the domain’s WHOIS record shows a long registration duration, typically 2, 5, or 10+ years.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • CDN Infrastructure DetectedDNS HistoryThe domain is hosted on shared infrastructure such as a CDN, cloud provider, or shared hosting platform.
  • Observed and Registered Geolocation ConsistencyDNS HistoryIt indicates that the observed geolocation of the IP matches its registered geolocation, suggesting a stable and expected geographic placement for the infrastructure at the time of observation.
  • Current and Historical Geolocation AlignmentDNS HistoryIt indicates that the geolocation of the domain’s currently active IP addresses is consistent with the geolocations observed in its historical IP usage, suggesting continuity in infrastructure…
  • ASN Allocated Long Time AgoDNS HistoryIt means that the ASN was allocated many years ago and has a long operational history.
