VERIFY • WEBSITE / LINK

Know what you can verify about a link before you trust it.

Paste a website address or link and we'll examine its structure for useful warning signs. A clean result is not a guarantee that a website is legitimate.

Do not open a suspicious link just to test it.

You can paste the address here without visiting it first. If the link came from a message, email or social-media post, do not use the supplied link as your only source of verification.

What does this checker actually examine?
The current verification engine examines URL and domain-structure characteristics such as the protocol, hostname construction, internationalized characters, embedded credentials, subdomain structure and non-standard ports.
What does it not know yet?
This first verification layer does not independently establish domain ownership, registration history, reputation, malware status, phishing reports or whether the organisation represented by the website is genuine. Those deeper checks will be added through trusted external intelligence layers.
Enter a full URL or just a domain, for example: example.com
