Evidence Summary

CRITICAL

Analysis of mendel.network, created on 23 February 2026 and hosted behind Cloudflare (AS13335, United States), shows multiple indicators of compromise consistent with a high‑risk generic phishing operation. The domain is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC and uses Cloudflare nameservers sandra.ns.cloudflare.com and armando.ns.cloudflare.com. TLS termination is provided by Google Trust Services under the WE1 certificate, and the site responds with HTTP 200 over HTTP/3, suggesting a modern web stack. Service fingerprinting identifies Firebase and Cloudflare components, which are commonly leveraged for rapid deployment of phishing pages.

Reputation checks reveal that the domain appears on at least one security blocklist and is actively blocked by PhishDestroy. VirusTotal scans report that 2 of 93 antivirus engines flag the domain, reinforcing the suspicion. Additional risk metrics include a Gridinsoft trust score of 11 / 100 and a single MX record pointing to mendel‑network.mail.protection.outlook.com, which may be used for credential harvesting. The page title “Mendel — Privacy Infrastructure for the Robotics Economy” does not correspond to a known legitimate service, and no further content analysis is available.

Defenders should treat connections to 188.114.97.3 as malicious, block DNS resolution for mendel.network, and enforce email filtering for messages originating from the listed Outlook protection host. Continuous monitoring of Cloudflare‑based IP ranges for similar patterns is advised, as is periodic re‑scanning with VirusTotal and other sandbox services to capture any evolving payloads. Until additional forensic evidence emerges, the domain should be classified as a high‑confidence phishing threat and excluded from trusted allow‑lists.
