The auth subdomain aligns with the official app.impacprequal.co.nz platform for account creation and authentication. Our antivirus network flagged no malicious content, the hosting IP has zero abuse reports, and SSL is valid. Business registration confirms IMPAC PREQUAL as an active New Zealand entity. Web research found no scam reports, complaints, or fraud allegations — only confirmation that the service is a standard industry requirement. The Imperva WAF block in the screenshot is a security measure, not a sign of malicious intent; it simply means the scanner's IP was rate-limited or blocked by the site's own firewall, which is normal for legitimate login portals.

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 auth.impacprequal.co.nz and not a lookalike like a-uth.impacprequal.co.nz.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.
- OpenDiscuss this site on the forum
