eicar.com Overview

Description of eicar.com

eicar.com appears to be the website of EICAR e.V., the European Institute for Computer Anti-Virus Research. Based on the page title, metadata, and visible navigation, the site presents information about the organization, its team, projects, news, membership, and downloadable materials related to anti-malware research and cybersecurity topics.

The domain has been registered since 1996, which suggests a long-established online presence. Its content and third-party categorization data broadly align with technology, computer security, and information technology themes. The homepage branding and structure indicate that it is likely operated by the EICAR association as an informational and professional web presence rather than a consumer-focused service.

Safety Assessment for eicar.com

Scan results appear largely favorable overall, although not entirely free of caution signals at the time of this scan. One out of 91 security engines flagged the domain, while the broader blacklist and threat-database checks were clean, including major phishing and malware blocklists. The site also appears to belong to a long-standing cybersecurity organization, which reduces concern compared with newly registered or anonymous domains.

A separate malware scan marked multiple internal URLs and references as suspicious and used a generic heuristic label rather than identifying a specific malware family. In context, these findings may reflect false positives, especially given the site's security-research theme, the age of the domain, and the absence of corroboration from blacklist databases or a broader multi-engine consensus. Based on available data, no significant threats were detected at the time of this scan.

Technical Description

The domain uses a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate with expiry in October 2026, indicating that HTTPS is configured. It is hosted on infrastructure associated with manitu GmbH in Sankt Wendel, Germany, and uses the nameservers dns01.manitu.net and dns02.manitu.net.

WHOIS data indicates the domain was created in 1996 and remains registered through August 2026. DNSSEC appears to be unsigned, which is not uncommon but means DNS responses may not benefit from that additional integrity layer. No major infrastructure-side security issues were evident from the provided scan data.
