obs-studio[.]pro

The domain obs-studio.pro is identified as a brand impersonation threat targeting users of the OBS Studio software platform. Analysis indicates the domain was designed to mimic the legitimate OBS Studio website, likely for credential harvesting or malware distribution under the guise of free streaming and recording software. The domain is currently offline, but prior activity suggests it posed an elevated risk to unsuspecting users seeking authentic software downloads. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com on February 21, 2026, an unusually future-dated registration that may indicate suspicious intent. It resolves to the IP address 162.216.241.242 and appears on three security blocklists. VirusTotal reports that 6 out of 95 security vendors flagged this domain as malicious, while the Gridinsoft trust score is 0 out of 100. The domain was also detected in two AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses and is blocked by multiple security frameworks, including MetaMask and SEAL. The page title, 'OBS Studio – Free Live Streaming & Screen Recording Software,' closely mirrors the legitimate OBS Studio branding to deceive users. The domain is currently offline, reducing immediate risk, but its prior infrastructure and detection history warrant continued monitoring. Organizations are advised to block the domain and its associated IP (162.216.241.242) at the network level. Security teams should review logs for connections to this domain or IP and alert users who may have interacted with it. Given the domain's registration details and detection across multiple threat intelligence sources, further investigation into related infrastructure is recommended to identify potential secondary threats.
