usf.edu Overview

Description of usf.edu

usf.edu appears to be the official website of the University of South Florida, a public research university serving Tampa, St. Petersburg, and surrounding areas in Florida. The homepage, page title, and metadata indicate that the site is used to present information about academics, admissions, campus life, athletics, research, and student services, with navigation elements such as MyUSF and Apply supporting that role.

Based on the domain, institutional branding, and education-focused classifications from multiple web-categorization providers, this website appears to be operated by the University of South Florida or its affiliated web administration teams. The domain has been registered since 1986, which is consistent with a long-established educational institution, and the site structure includes numerous university subdomains and embedded media commonly seen on large university websites.

Safety Assessment for usf.edu

The scan results are broadly consistent with a legitimate educational website. At the time of this scan, 0 out of 91 security engines detected malicious activity, and the checked threat-database and blacklist sources did not report the domain for phishing, malware, or other content-based abuse. The domain is also long-established and has a strong traffic profile, which can be a positive contextual signal when viewed alongside clean scan results.

A malware scan reported no flagged files out of 96 scanned, although two internal university-related domains were associated with a generic heuristic label. Because these were generic pattern-based findings without corroboration from the broader engine consensus or blacklist data, they appear to be low-confidence signals rather than strong evidence of active harm. No flagged external links were reported, and the referenced domains and iframes shown are consistent with normal university web content such as social media, analytics, and embedded video.

Based on available data, no threats were detected at the time of this scan.

Technical Description

The site was served over a valid SSL/TLS certificate issued by InCommon, LLC, with an expiry date of 2026-12-17. The web server appears to be Microsoft-IIS/10.0 hosted on Microsoft Azure Cloud, with the resolved server IP located in the United States. This infrastructure profile is consistent with a large institutional website using enterprise hosting and standard HTTPS deployment.

WHOIS data indicates the domain was created in 1986 and remains active through 2027. DNSSEC status was not available in the provided data, so that control could not be confirmed from this scan alone. No major technical security concerns were evident in the supplied results beyond the low-confidence heuristic references noted elsewhere.
