The domain is over 21 years old, which is a strong positive signal for a real business. All antivirus engines returned clean results and the hosting IP shows no abuse history.

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 dukeuae.com and not a lookalike like d-ukeuae.com.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

Safety FAQ
Common questions about this site, answered from the scan data on this page. These are auto-generated — not hand-written — so they always match the underlying report.
- Our automated security review found no threat indicators on dukeuae.com. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
- dukeuae.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 82/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
- Yes. dukeuae.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R13, expiring in 83 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
- dukeuae.com is 21.4 years old, registered on 12/21/2004 through Netregistry Wholesale Pty Ltd. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.

- No. dukeuae.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
- dukeuae.com resolves to an IP operated by Internet Utilities Europe and Asia Limited in US (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). 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.
