kinghost.com.br 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.

Does kinghost.com.br have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes. kinghost.com.br presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by DigiCert Inc · RapidSSL TLS RSA CA G1, expiring in 120 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 kinghost.com.br as clean.

Is kinghost.com.br on any phishing or malware blacklists?

Where is kinghost.com.br hosted?

kinghost.com.br resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, 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.

Is kinghost.com.br a well-known website?

Yes. kinghost.com.br 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.

What to do

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 kinghost.com.br and not a lookalike like k-inghost.com.br.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.
