The domain research-hub.online was registered on February 21, 2026 through Hostinger operations, UAB and is hosted behind Cloudflare infrastructure (AS13335). DNS resolution points to IP address 104.21.51.212, which geolocates to the United States. The authoritative nameservers are steven.ns.cloudflare.com and magali.ns.cloudflare.com, and the site presented a TLS certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 label, confirming a valid HTTPS endpoint. The page title returned by the server is "Suspected phishing site | Cloudflare," indicating that the content was flagged by Cloudflare as a phishing landing page.

VirusTotal analysis recorded five detections out of ninety‑three scanned engines, and the domain appears on five independent blocklists, namely PhishDestroy, ScamSniffer, Polkadot, Enkrypt, and Codeesura. Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100, reinforcing the malicious assessment. The current HTTP status is offline, and the risk rating is elevated. Known intelligence does not disclose the specific credential types targeted, the victim demographic, or any associated malware kit.

Consequently, uncertainty remains around the exact phishing workflow and any downstream payloads. Defenders should immediately block the domain and its associated IP at perimeter defenses, update URL filtering policies to include the listed blocklists, and monitor for any traffic attempting to resolve or connect to the domain. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised should the site become active again, and any observed payloads should be correlated with the five VirusTotal detections for further attribution.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
