Intelligence
The page title, meta description, and visible content match Zoom's official branding exactly. Two antivirus engines flagged the subdomain, yet the hosting IP carries zero abuse reports and the SSL certificate is issued by DigiCert. The domain is a known Zoom infrastructure subdomain used for meeting hosting, not a newly registered look-alike. Web research confirms the subdomain belongs to Zoom Video Communications, Inc., a publicly traded company. The single Reddit mention describes scammers sending fake Zoom links, not this actual subdomain being malicious. Visual analysis shows the standard Zoom homepage with no phishing elements or cloned layout.
Web Research Findings
Our live research agent queries scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, news coverage, and general web search for us05web.zoom.us, then cross-checks business-registration records and look-alike domain patterns. Everything below is pulled from what it actually found.
- us05web.zoom.us is a legitimate subdomain owned by Zoom Video Communications, Inc., used as a 'Zone Controller' server to host meetings.
- The domain is part of the official zoom.us infrastructure and is not inherently malicious.
- Scammers frequently create deceptive look-alike domains (such as zoom.us505web.us) that mimic the naming convention of legitimate Zoom subdomains to conduct phishing attacks.
- Users are advised to verify the full URL before clicking, as attackers often use social engineering to lure victims into downloading malware or providing credentials via fake meeting links.
- Legitimate Zoom meeting links will always end in .zoom.us; any variation (like .us505web.us) is a sign of a phishing attempt.

A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

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 us05web.zoom.us and not a lookalike like u-s05web.zoom.us.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.

Safety FAQ
Common questions, 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 us05web.zoom.us, so it appears legitimate. Even so, always double-check the exact address in your browser, because phishing emails routinely spoof real, trusted domains like this one.
- us05web.zoom.us passed our automated checks with a trust score of 80/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged it at the time of the last scan, and its signals line up with an established, legitimate site. Treat any unexpected login prompt or payment request on it with the same caution you would anywhere.
- Yes — and this is worth understanding. Even trustworthy domains get spoofed in phishing emails (a fake message that only looks like it's from us05web.zoom.us), and legitimate sites are occasionally compromised on specific pages. A clean verdict means the site itself checks out today; it does not mean every email or link claiming to be from us05web.zoom.us is genuine. Always reach the site by typing the address yourself rather than clicking links in unexpected messages.
- Yes. 2 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged us05web.zoom.us, 2 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
- No — us05web.zoom.us is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
- Yes — us05web.zoom.us presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by DigiCert Inc · DigiCert Global G2 TLS RSA SHA256 2020 CA1, valid for another 168 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
- us05web.zoom.us resolves to an IP operated by Zoom Video Communications, Inc in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
- This report is a record of the scan run on July 14, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about us05web.zoom.us has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
