Safety Score evaluates observed signals. Evidence Confidence measures how complete, direct, fresh, and consistent those signals are.

No automated scan can guarantee that a website is safe.

Independent evidence brief

What we observed about zdf.de

Updated Sep 26, 2026

The latest scan examined 10 public pages on zdf.de. Website descriptions below come from the site itself. Registration, connection and threat findings were checked separately.

Purpose and visible content

On its homepage, the site says: Alle Videos und Livestreams im ZDF anschauen - ständig verfügbar und interaktiv! Entdecke Filme, Serien, Sportevents, Dokumentationen und vieles mehr!

  • ImpressumImpressum - ZDF, Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen, Anstalt des öffentlichen Rechts
  • DatenschutzDatenschutz beim ZDF auf einen Blick

Registrar and domain history

A reliable creation date was not returned by the registration lookup. The report leaves domain age unverified rather than guessing.

Connection and hosting evidence

The checked homepage returned HTTP 200.

A valid TLS certificate was observed, expiring Dec 20, 2026.

Threat checks and score context

External malware-provider coverage was unavailable. The report does not treat this missing check as a clean result.

Safety Score: 61/100. Evidence Confidence: 65%. These measure different things.

Latest recorded material change: The captured website appearance changed.

45/100

Observed security header values were checked for basic protective settings. Empty values, disabled HSTS and unrecognized values receive no credit. This is not a complete browser-policy validation.

53/100

Observed site metadata and About page were checked. Publisher-supplied details are not independently verified.

Popularity is weak context, not proof of safety. Unranked sites use a neutral baseline.

Operational StabilityWeight 15%

Observed HTTP status and final connection scheme were checked.

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.

Partial analysis. Only the first 512 KiB of the page were inspected.

No listed local patterns observed. The limited rule set cannot detect every threat or behavior.

External threat intelligence

Provider coverageNot checked

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

Questions about zdf.de

FAQ

Still have questions? Contact us →
Is zdf.de safe to visit?

The latest Safety Score is 61/100 with 65% Evidence Confidence. This is a point-in-time assessment of observed technical signals, not a guarantee. Check the exact address and avoid entering payment details if anything looks unusual.

Did the scan detect malware on zdf.de?

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

When was zdf.de registered?

The registry lookup did not provide a reliable creation date in this scan.

Did zdf.de have a valid TLS certificate?

The scanner observed a valid TLS certificate using TLSv1.2. A valid certificate alone does not establish that the site is safe.

Can a paid listing change this website's score?

No. Premium placement and owner-supplied pages are labelled separately. Technical evidence, the Safety Score and moderation decisions remain independent.
