Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain governance-quant.com is currently classified as a high‑risk generic phishing site. It was registered on July 10, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is hosted on the IP address 104.21.86.234, which is associated with Cloudflare's edge network. DNS resolution uses the Cloudflare authoritative nameservers georgia.ns.cloudflare.com and kurt.ns.cloudflare.com. An HTTP request to the root URL returns a 403 status code, indicating that the server is actively refusing standard access, a behavior often observed in malicious infrastructure that serves content only to targeted requests. VirusTotal scans show that three of ninety‑one security vendors have flagged the domain, providing additional confirmation of its malicious reputation. No public page content, login portals, or brand impersonation details have been disclosed, so the exact phishing payload remains unknown. Defenders should treat any traffic to governance-quant.com as hostile: block the domain at the perimeter, add the IP address to network‑level blacklists, and monitor DNS queries for look‑alike variations. Continuous threat‑intel feeds should be consulted for any emerging indicators, and incident response teams should be prepared to investigate any credential submissions that may have been directed to this infrastructure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 68b1277fd40cef956533ac8756b838cc7c372c171018f6ad49b1b6da59fc6159 ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/governance-quant.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=governance-quant.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
