high

brand impersonation

The domain gotoassist.me impersonates the legitimate GoToAssist service (gotoassist.com) operated by LogMeIn/GoTo. The page title reads 'GoToAssist Corporate - gotoassist.me', uses official GoToAssist logos and branding (G2AC_Logo_Footer_136x30.png, G2AC_Favicon_32.png), references official CDN assets from getgocdn.com, and displays '© 2026 LogMeIn, Inc. All rights reserved.' — all to convincingly mimic the real support portal on an unofficial .me TLD domain. (location: page.html:154, page.html:239, page.html:243)

high

social engineering

The page is designed as a remote support session entry portal instructing users to 'Type the code you received and click the button to proceed.' This is a classic tech-support scam pattern: a victim is called by a fraudster posing as support staff, given a session code, directed to this page, and induced to grant full remote access to their device via the GoToAssist remote-access protocol. (location: page.html:206-207, page-text.txt:4-5)

medium

credential harvesting

The form submits user-supplied session codes via GET request to /ds/gotoassistme.flow with a hidden SessionInfo value (1751198:9D4F1C33BC7D9CEF2D51BF6904644315:null) and hidden Form field. The session key 1751198 is also hardcoded in the JavaScript CORS gateway status reporter, suggesting the page may be pre-seeded for a specific attack session to harvest victim device access credentials or session tokens. (location: page.html:208-210, page.html:21-23)

medium

malicious redirect

JavaScript on page load automatically reads the 'Code' URL query parameter and, if present, populates the session code input and programmatically clicks the submit button without any user interaction. This enables a phishing link such as https://gotoassist.me/?Code=123456 to silently initiate a remote-access session the moment a victim clicks the link. (location: page.html:188-192)

medium

social engineering

The footer link points to http://www.gotoassist.com/remote_support/ (non-HTTPS) while the rest of the site uses HTTPS, and the 'Powered by GoToAssist' branding with official logo images is used to lend legitimacy to an unofficial domain, increasing victim trust to complete the session handoff.

FAQ: how to interpret this assessment

Common questions teams ask before deciding whether to use this domain in agent workflows.

Is gotoassist.me safe for AI agents to use?

gotoassist.me currently scores 44/100 with a suspicious verdict and low 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.

How should I interpret the score and verdict?

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.

How does brin compute this domain score?

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.

What do identity, behavior, content, and graph mean for this domain?

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.

Why does brin scan packages, repos, skills, MCP servers, pages, and commits?

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.

Can I rely on a safe verdict as a full security guarantee?

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.

When should I re-check before using an entity?

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.
