studio-obs[.]net

The domain studio-obs.net was registered on February 21, 2026 through NETIM SAS and is presently taken offline. Infrastructure analysis shows the domain resolves to IP 162.216.241.242, which belongs to AS398019 Dynu Systems Incorporated and is geolocated in the United States. The authoritative name servers are ns1.netim.net, ns2.netim.net, and ns3.netim.net. The site presented a page title of “Download OBS Studio Free - Screen Recorder & Live Streaming,” but the content has not been captured for further behavioural analysis.

A Let’s Encrypt R13 certificate was in use, and HTTP headers indicated the presence of Nginx, HSTS enforcement, and Google Analytics tracking. The domain received a Gridinsoft trust score of 0 out of 100, reflecting an extremely low reputation. VirusTotal recorded 13 detections out of 95 scanned security vendors, confirming that multiple engines recognize the site as malicious.

It appears on three security blocklists and has been actively blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. The threat type is classified as brand impersonation, specifically impersonating the brand “base.” Given the confluence of low trust scoring, multiple vendor detections, blocklist listings, and the use of a legitimate‑looking SSL certificate, defenders should add studio-obs.net to URL filtering policies, block the associated IP address, and monitor for any residual activity from the associated ASN. Continuous threat intelligence feeds should be consulted for any re‑use of the infrastructure, and endpoint protection solutions should be updated to flag the domain as malicious.
