Description of pscp.tv
pscp.tv appears to be the web domain historically associated with Periscope, a live-streaming video platform that was integrated with Twitter. The page shown in the scan is a branded shutdown or transition notice stating that Periscope is "saying goodbye" and directing users to continue on Twitter, which suggests the domain now primarily serves legacy informational content rather than an active standalone streaming service.
Based on the domain, page title, metadata, and web-categorization results, the site appears to fall under streaming media, video hosting, and social networking. The presence of links to Twitter help resources and Twitter itself indicates that the service was operated within Twitter's ecosystem, and the current page functions more like an official service-retirement landing page than a full consumer platform.
Safety Assessment for pscp.tv
The scan results are broadly reassuring at the time of this scan. No detections were reported by 0 out of 91 security engines, the malware scan reported no flagged files out of 6 examined, and no external links or referenced domains were flagged. In addition, the domain was not listed by the checked blacklist databases, which reduces the likelihood of currently known malware or phishing activity based on available data.
Contextual signals also support a lower-risk assessment. The domain has been registered for more than 11 years, has a strong traffic profile, uses a valid TLS certificate, and references infrastructure and help resources consistent with a major established web platform. The screenshot shows a simple branded notice about Periscope's closure rather than suspicious prompts, downloads, or deceptive forms.
Based on available data, no threats were detected at the time of this scan.
Technical Description
The domain uses a valid SSL/TLS certificate issued through Amazon-managed infrastructure, with certificate validity extending to 2027-02-28. It resolves to an AWS EC2 address in the eu-west-1 region (Dublin, Ireland), and its nameservers are hosted on AWS DNS. The registrar is a corporate-focused provider, and the domain age is consistent with a long-established service.
DNSSEC appears to be unsigned, which is not uncommon but means DNS responses do not benefit from DNSSEC validation. No technical indicators in the provided scan suggest malicious scripts, flagged iframes, or suspicious outbound references at the time of this scan.
