Confidence
pstatic.net is a static-content subdomain owned and operated by Naver, one of South Korea's largest internet companies. The domain was registered in September 2011 and uses Naver's own nameservers (ns1–ns3.naver.com), confirming direct operational control. Our antivirus network flagged zero detections across 92 engines, and the hosting IP carries zero abuse reports. Independent security analysis assigned it a 75/100 safety score. Web research found no scam reports, fraud complaints, or phishing associations; a malware-tracking service explicitly confirmed no infostealer linkage. The domain serves legitimate purposes — hosting images, stylesheets, and media for Naver's webtoons, news, gaming, and social platforms. Occasional false-positive blocks by security tools on specific subdomains are expected noise when a large CDN handles billions of requests.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

pstatic.net is a static-content delivery domain, not a user-facing website. It serves images, CSS files, JavaScript bundles, and media assets for Naver's ecosystem of services (webtoons, news aggregation, gaming, social networking). The domain itself does not host a traditional web page.

Infrastructure

Hosted on IP 223.130.200.107 in South Korea with zero abuse reports. Nameservers point directly to Naver infrastructure (ns1–ns3.naver.com), confirming operational ownership. SSL certificate status unavailable (typical for CDN infrastructure). The domain uses Gabia, Inc. as registrar, a legitimate Korean domain registry.

Domain History

Registered September 6, 2011 — over 14 years of continuous operation. Expiration set for September 6, 2026. No registration changes, privacy violations, or suspicious transfers detected. The long, stable history is consistent with a major company's core infrastructure asset.

Web Reputation

Zero scam reports, zero fraud complaints, zero phishing associations found across web-search and complaint databases. Independent security analysis (AgencySSL) scored it 75/100 (safe). Malware-tracking services confirm no linkage to infostealer malware families. Occasional false-positive blocks by security tools on specific subdomains are documented as noise, not indicators of malice.

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 pstatic.net and not a lookalike like p-static.net.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 pstatic.net. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • pstatic.net passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 88/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • pstatic.net is 14.8 years old, registered on 9/6/2011 through Gabia, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report pstatic.net as clean.
  • No. pstatic.net is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • pstatic.net resolves to an IP operated by NAVER Cloud Corp. in KR (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.
  • Yes. pstatic.net 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 14, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around pstatic.net have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
