started-livedesktops[.]wixstudio[.]com

On 23 July 2026 the domain started-livedesktops.wixstudio.com was observed resolving to the IPv4 address 162.159.143.12. The registration is listed under Wix.com Ltd., a widely used website‑builder service, and authoritative name servers could not be retrieved (NS_NOT_FOUND). The domain appears on a single security blocklist and has been actively blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, confirming its use in malicious operations. VirusTotal records indicate that the domain was scanned by 91 antivirus engines; none of the engines raised a detection at the time of analysis. The absence of detections does not constitute evidence of safety, but it shows that the current hosting pattern has not yet matched known malware signatures.

Available intelligence classifies the activity as a generic phishing campaign, yet the specific lure, target brand, or credential‑harvesting page has not been disclosed. No data on SSL/TLS certificates, HTTP response codes, page titles, or content hashes is present, leaving the surface‑web characteristics of the site uncharacterized. Likewise, there is no correlation with open‑source intelligence sources such as OTX, nor any attribution to known phishing kits.

Defenders should continue to block traffic to 162.159.143.12 and to the domain at DNS and perimeter layers. Monitoring for DNS queries to the domain and outbound connections to the associated IP is recommended. Incorporate the domain into threat‑intel feeds and update URL filtering policies, especially those that ingest the PhishDestroy list. Periodic re‑scanning on VirusTotal and other sandbox services is advised to capture any future changes in payload or hosting. The lack of additional telemetry warrants ongoing observation, and any newly discovered indicators—such as HTTP status, certificate fingerprints, or page content—should be added to the incident record.
