## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-18 16:45:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies secure.security-service.cloud as an active credential phishing site designed to harvest user credentials under the guise of a security service portal. This domain mimics legitimate security platforms to deceive visitors into entering sensitive login details, which are then exfiltrated to threat actors. The phishing page leverages a spoofed interface resembling a corporate security service, making it particularly dangerous for employees or users accustomed to such portals.  This domain was flagged by 7 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating a high level of malicious activity. It was registered through TUCOWS.COM, CO. on April 30, 2025, and is currently resolved to the IP address 52.17.82.5. Additionally, Google Safe Browsing has classified this domain under the SOCIAL_ENGINEERING category, further validating its deceptive nature. The use of a Sectigo Limited SSL certificate adds a false sense of legitimacy, which threat actors commonly exploit to bypass user skepticism.  Users who have visited secure.security-service.cloud should immediately check their account credentials for any unauthorized access or password changes. If login details were entered, reset passwords on all associated accounts and enable multi-factor authentication where possible. Avoid using this domain for any future transactions or login attempts. Report the domain to your security team or through PhishDestroy’s platform to help mitigate further risks to others.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      e5eaed21f1a1a4afc21f4ae6e356c4100ddaf53f47a7ba912a68a6684291e877

## 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 (volunteer 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.
