context safety score
A score of 48/100 indicates multiple risk signals were detected. This entity shows patterns commonly associated with malicious intent.
tls connection failed
Could not establish TLS connection
brand impersonation
The domain 'braintree.tools' closely mimics the brand name of Braintree (a PayPal-owned payment processing company). The use of a '.tools' TLD combined with the 'braintree' name is a classic typosquat/brand impersonation pattern designed to deceive users or agents expecting the legitimate braintree.com domain. (location: metadata.json: domain field)
phishing
TLS connection failed (connected=false, cert_valid=false) for a site impersonating a financial services brand (Braintree/PayPal). A site mimicking a payment processor with no valid TLS certificate is a strong indicator of a phishing operation, as legitimate payment platforms always enforce HTTPS. (location: metadata.json: tls object)
credential harvesting
Combination of brand impersonation of a payment processor (Braintree) and invalid/absent TLS certificate strongly suggests this site may be used to harvest payment credentials, API keys, or merchant account credentials from users or automated agents who mistake it for the legitimate Braintree platform. (location: metadata.json: domain + tls fields)
curl https://api.brin.sh/domain/braintree.toolsCommon questions teams ask before deciding whether to use this domain in agent workflows.
braintree.tools currently scores 48/100 with a suspicious verdict and medium confidence. The goal is to protect agents from high-risk context before they act on it. Treat this as a decision signal: higher scores suggest lower observed risk, while lower scores mean you should add review or block this domain.
Use the score as a policy threshold: 80–100 is safe, 50–79 is caution, 20–49 is suspicious, and 0–19 is dangerous. Teams often auto-allow safe, require human review for caution/suspicious, and block dangerous.
brin evaluates four dimensions: identity (source trust), behavior (runtime patterns), content (malicious instructions), and graph (relationship risk). Analysis runs in tiers: static signals, deterministic pattern checks, then AI semantic analysis when needed.
Identity checks source trust, behavior checks unusual runtime patterns, content checks for malicious instructions, and graph checks risky relationships to other entities. Looking at sub-scores helps you understand why an entity passed or failed.
brin performs risk assessments on external context before it reaches an AI agent. It scores that context for threats like prompt injection, hijacking, credential harvesting, and supply chain attacks, so teams can decide whether to block, review, or proceed safely.
No. A safe verdict means no significant risk signals were detected in this scan. It is not a formal guarantee; assessments are automated and point-in-time, so combine scores with your own controls and periodic re-checks.
Re-check before high-impact actions such as installs, upgrades, connecting MCP servers, executing remote code, or granting secrets. Use the API in CI or runtime gates so decisions are based on the latest scan.

Assessments are automated and may contain errors. Findings are risk indicators, not confirmed threats. This is a point-in-time assessment; security posture can change.
