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 kanzlei.biz and not a lookalike like k-anzlei.biz.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 kanzlei.biz. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • kanzlei.biz passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 90/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. kanzlei.biz presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 73 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • kanzlei.biz is 24.2 years old, registered on 3/26/2002 through Key-Systems GmbH. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
