Why this verdict

Evidence and analysis

VerdictIQ AIGenerated from 26 deterministic signals

aj0453[.]top is classified as suspicious with a risk score of 60/100: ambiguous posture; signals suggest concern but lack convergent evidence. The recommended downstream action is alert_only.

The risk model observed 26 signals (including 6 core signals) across 3 taxonomy groups (HTTP Crawling, DNS History, Threat Intelligence). The strongest indicators are Low-Control General Hosting Network, Flagged by Security Vendors, Critical SSL CA Issue, 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.

Top 10 of 26Showing all 26
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Geolocation Mismatch or High-Risk RegionDNS HistoryIt indicates that the ASN shows geolocation anomalies, such as a mismatch between registry country and observed country or continent, or that it is associated with a country known for elevated abuse…
  • Small IP Block AllocationDNS HistoryIt indicates that the IP block allocated to the ASN is unusually small.
  • Newly-Issued SSL CertificateHTTP CrawlingIt indicates that the SSL certificate associated with the domain has been newly created or issued.
  • Current and Historical Geolocation DivergenceDNS HistoryIt indicates that the geolocation of the domain’s currently active IP addresses significantly differs from the geolocations observed in its historical IP usage, suggesting a notable shift in…
  • Assigned IP BlockDNS HistoryIt indicates that the IP block has the RIR status 'assigned', which is commonly associated with end-user or reseller address space that frequently changes hands and exhibits higher abuse rates than…
  • NS Unchanged Since Domain CreationDNS HistoryThe domain's nameserver records have never been changed since registration.
  • Geo-Registry Country MismatchDNS HistoryThe IP's geolocation doesn't match the RIR allocation country.
  • Limited Web Structure DetectedHTTP CrawlingIt means the domain hosts only a few subpages or internal links.
  • SSL DV ValidationcoreHTTP CrawlingIt indicates that the SSL/TLS certificate’s Common Name (CN) or Subject Alternative Name (SAN) correctly matches the accessed hostname.
  • Large-Scale Enterprise IP BlockcoreDNS HistoryIt indicates that the IP address belongs to a large-scale, long-established, and officially allocated enterprise network.
  • Long-Running IPcoreDNS HistoryThese refer to domains that have consistently resolved through DNS over a long period.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Single DC Hub FootprintDNS HistoryIt indicates that the IP address belongs to data center or hosting infrastructure and describes the current geographic footprint of that infrastructure based on observed IP locations.
  • 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…
  • EU Compliance LocationDNS HistoryIt indicates that the IP address is consistently hosted within EU regions known for strict regulatory, privacy and operational compliance standards, reducing the likelihood of unmanaged or…
  • Not Listed in Open-Source Threat FeedsThreat IntelligenceIt indicates that the domain does not appear in any public or open-source threat intelligence feeds, malware repositories, or IOC databases.
  • Major Cloud or CDN InfrastructureDNS HistoryIt indicates that the ASN belongs to a clearly identified regulated network category such as major cloud/CDN providers, government infrastructure, or academic and research networks.
  • Registry–Geo CIDR Full MatchDNS HistoryIt indicates that the delegated registry CIDR fully matches the geolocation CIDR, meaning the entire IP block consistently maps to a single country or region with no fragmentation.
  • 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.
  • ASN Allocated Long Time AgoDNS HistoryIt means that the ASN was allocated many years ago and has a long operational history.
