Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
Analysis of the domain my.gradient.directory indicates that it is currently active and associated with a generic phishing operation. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 162.244.92.2, providing a single point of contact for the malicious infrastructure. Independent threat‑intel feeds have flagged the host: PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer list it, and it appears on two additional security blocklists, confirming that multiple security vendors have observed abusive activity tied to the domain. A VirusTotal submission routed the domain to 91 antivirus and sandbox engines; none reported a detection at the time of analysis.
While the lack of detections may reflect a low‑profile payload or evasion techniques, it does not constitute evidence of safety. No publicly disclosed Safe Browsing, Open Threat Exchange (OTX), registrar, TLS certificate, HTTP status code, page title, or trust‑score data is available in the current intelligence set, leaving many infrastructure attributes unknown. The risk level is marked as “under investigation,” and the status remains active, suggesting continued operation. Defenders should therefore treat any email, URL, or login prompt that references my.gradient.directory as potentially malicious.
Recommended mitigations include adding the domain and its resolved IP address (162.244.92.2) to network deny lists, enforcing DNS‑sinkhole policies, and monitoring outbound connections for attempts to reach the host. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised: periodic rescans with VirusTotal or alternative sandbox platforms, correlation with newly observed phishing campaigns, and updating of blocklist entries as fresh indicators emerge. Until forensic analysis provides a definitive attribution or confirms cessation of activity, the domain should be regarded as hostile.
For the registrable domain gradient.directory behind this subdomain, 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.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
