Verdict

Established artist-agency website with no demonstrated scam mechanism

The evidence identifies this as the website of KünstlerSekretariat am Gasteig, an artist agency founded in 1984, and the page includes an artist list. No supplied evidence shows phishing, malicious downloads, deceptive sales, or another visitor-harm mechanism. One isolated security detection and the hosting IP’s mixed reputation warrant some caution, but broader checks found no threat warning and a valid encrypted connection.

Investigation Brief

The evidence identifies this as the website of KünstlerSekretariat am Gasteig, an artist agency founded in 1984, and the page includes an artist list. No supplied evidence shows phishing, malicious downloads, deceptive sales, or another visitor-harm mechanism. One isolated security detection and the hosting IP’s mixed reputation warrant some caution, but broader checks found no threat warning and a valid encrypted connection.

Consistent identity and purpose

Research results say Elisabeth Ehlers and Lothar Schacke founded KünstlerSekretariat am Gasteig in 1984, and identify the organization as Elisabeth Ehlers, Lothar Schacke and Verena Vetter oHG. The visible branding names the same agency, while the page’s “Künstlerliste” label is consistent with an artist-agency site.

Technical checks are mostly reassuring, with limited adverse signals

Only one of 92 security engines produced an adverse result, so there was no detection consensus. The saved checks also found no Safe Browsing warning and confirmed a valid encrypted connection.

The hosting IP carries an abuse-confidence score of 41 out of 100 across nine saved reports. This is a reason for routine caution, but it does not by itself establish harmful behavior by this particular website.

Why the score is 88

1 independent antivirus family reported an adverse result. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

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.

  1. Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on www.ks-gasteig.de and not a lookalike like w-ww.ks-gasteig.de or an IDN homoglyph.

  2. 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.

  3. Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

07 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is www.ks-gasteig.de legit and safe?
Our automated security review found no threat indicators on www.ks-gasteig.de, 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.
Is www.ks-gasteig.de safe to use?
www.ks-gasteig.de has a Safety Score of 88/100 (Safe). 1 independent antivirus family reported an adverse result. at scan time. Treat unexpected login or payment requests with normal caution.
Could a legitimate site like www.ks-gasteig.de still be used in a scam?
Yes — and this is worth understanding. Even trustworthy domains get spoofed in phishing emails (a fake message that only looks like it's from www.ks-gasteig.de), 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 www.ks-gasteig.de is genuine. Always reach the site by typing the address yourself rather than clicking links in unexpected messages.
Has www.ks-gasteig.de been flagged by antivirus engines?
Yes. 1 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged www.ks-gasteig.de, 1 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
Is www.ks-gasteig.de on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — www.ks-gasteig.de 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.
Does www.ks-gasteig.de have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — www.ks-gasteig.de presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36, valid for another 69 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".
Where is www.ks-gasteig.de hosted?
www.ks-gasteig.de resolves to an IP operated by IONOS SE in DE (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.
How often is the www.ks-gasteig.de report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on October 2, 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 www.ks-gasteig.de has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
