uw.edu Overview

Description of uw.edu

uw.edu appears to be the main public website for the University of Washington, a major higher-education institution in the United States. The homepage branding, navigation, and metadata indicate that it serves as the university’s central portal for academics, admissions, research, campus information, news, and services for students, parents, faculty, staff, and alumni.

Based on the domain, page title, and screenshot, the site appears to be operated by the University of Washington and functions as an official institutional website rather than a commercial or promotional landing page. It links to a broad network of university subdomains and affiliated resources, which is typical for a large university environment with many departments, schools, and student services.

Safety Assessment for uw.edu

The strongest available signals are favorable at the time of this scan. The domain was not flagged by any of 91 security engines, and the major threat-database checks provided here were clean. The domain is also long-established, with a registration age of roughly 27 years, and it has a substantial traffic presence, which is consistent with a well-known university website.

One malware scanner did report a malicious threat level and marked several files, links, and referenced domains as suspicious or generic malicious objects. However, the flagged items shown here largely appear to be analytics, university-affiliated pages, or related external resources, and those findings are not corroborated by the broader multi-engine scan results or by the blacklist checks. In this context, the scanner output may reflect low-confidence heuristic detections rather than confirmed harmful activity.

Based on available data, no threats were detected by the broader scan consensus at the time of this scan, and the isolated heuristic findings appear limited in confidence. Based on available scan data, no significant threats were detected at the time of this scan.

Technical Description

The site is using a valid SSL/TLS certificate issued by InCommon, LLC, with expiry listed in January 2027. It is hosted on Google Cloud infrastructure in the United States, resolves to IP address 34.168.51.100, and appears to run on an Apache web server. The nameserver set is consistent with university-operated DNS infrastructure.

DNSSEC status is listed as unknown in the provided data, so no conclusion can be drawn on that control from this scan alone. No major infrastructure-level security issues are evident from the supplied information, although the protocol version was not identified and one heuristic scanner reported suspicious references that were not confirmed by other scan sources.
