Confidence
Aditude.io belongs to an established, venture-backed ad technology company with verifiable business registration in New York (founded 2019, active status). Our antivirus network flagged zero detections across 92 engines, browser blocklists are clean, and the hosting IP has zero malicious reputation. The domain carries valid SSL encryption and loads a professional, content-rich website describing enterprise ad-serving infrastructure. Independent web research uncovered no scam reports or complaints; instead, we found positive mentions from industry professionals on Reddit, client testimonials from major publishers (Hearst Newspapers, wikiHow), and confirmation of $15M Series A funding from Volition Capital in 2023. The company maintains active hiring, a public LinkedIn presence, and CEO visibility. These signals collectively indicate a legitimate, well-operated business rather than a fraudulent or phishing operation.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page presents a professional ad-tech marketing site with clear messaging around programmatic ad serving, analytics, and publisher control. Body text describes enterprise infrastructure, cloud wrappers, Prebid Server integration, and AI-powered analytics. The site loads external resources from legitimate CDNs (Framer, Google Tag Manager, Google Fonts) and includes a login link, consistent with a B2B SaaS platform.

Infrastructure

SSL certificate is valid (Let's Encrypt, 43 days to expiry). Hosting IP 76.76.21.21 has zero abuse score and clean reputation despite 26 historical abuse reports (typical for shared hosting). The domain redirects across two hops without homoglyph or IDN tricks. No malware, phishing, or suspicious code detected by our antivirus network or sandbox analysis.

Domain History

WHOIS data unavailable, but business registration confirms Aditude, Inc. was founded in 2019 and remains active in New York. The company raised $15M Series A funding in 2023 and ranked No. 251 on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies. This timeline and funding history are consistent with a legitimate, scaling SaaS business.

Web Reputation

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on aditude.io and not a lookalike like a-ditude.io.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on aditude.io. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • aditude.io passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 86/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. aditude.io presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R12, expiring in 43 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report aditude.io as clean.
  • No. aditude.io is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • aditude.io resolves to an IP operated by Vercel, Inc in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • Yes. aditude.io sits in the global top-100k on Cloudflare Radar, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. That does not automatically make it safe, but established brands almost always rank here and throwaway scam domains almost never do.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 12, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around aditude.io have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
