Server-side analysis

Automated security checks

Homepage HTML only · Eight local rule families · local-security-v1

Checks use the fetched page and redirect chain. Scripts are not executed, forms are not submitted, and linked files are not downloaded. This is not a malware clearance.

Redirect from HTTPS to HTTPSecurity concern · 1

The observed redirect chain includes a downgrade to an unencrypted connection. Connection security is assessed separately.

External threat intelligence

Provider coverageNot checked

Local checks do not query external reputation databases. An unavailable check is never a clean result.

FAQ

Still have questions? Contact us →
Is 163.com safe to visit?

Did the scan detect malware on 163.com?

External threat-provider coverage was unavailable for this scan, so malware status is unverified.

The public registry record shows Sep 15, 1997. Registration details may be privacy-protected or updated later.
