5 threat patterns detected

high

tls connection failed

Could not establish TLS connection

critical

brand impersonation

Domain 'ln-dc-msedge.net' mimics Microsoft Edge ('msedge') by incorporating the official Microsoft Edge browser process name into a non-Microsoft controlled domain. The prefix 'ln-dc-' is a common obfuscation pattern used to evade detection while the core brand term 'msedge' references Microsoft's browser engine, likely to deceive users or automated systems into trusting the domain. (location: domain: ln-dc-msedge.net)

critical

phishing

The domain 'ln-dc-msedge.net' uses a .net TLD combined with a subdomain-style prefix ('ln-dc-') appended to the Microsoft Edge brand name ('msedge'). This construction is a hallmark phishing pattern: impersonating a trusted brand under a lookalike domain to harvest credentials or redirect victims. TLS is not connected and the certificate is invalid, consistent with a hastily stood-up phishing infrastructure. (location: domain: ln-dc-msedge.net, metadata.json tls.connected=false, tls.cert_valid=false)

high

credential harvesting

The combination of a Microsoft brand-impersonating domain ('msedge'), failed TLS (no valid certificate), and a non-Microsoft registrar with unknown hosting reputation are strong indicators of a credential-harvesting site. Such infrastructure is routinely used to serve fake Microsoft login pages to capture usernames and passwords. (location: domain: ln-dc-msedge.net, metadata.json tls fields)

high

malicious redirect

The domain 'ln-dc-msedge.net' shows no page content (empty HTML and text), which is consistent with a redirect-only or cloaked endpoint. Sites that return empty content to scanners but serve malicious redirects to real browsers are a common evasion technique, routing victims to phishing or malware pages while appearing benign to automated analysis. (location: page.html (empty), page-text.txt (empty))

FAQ: how to interpret this assessment

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

Is ln-dc-msedge.net safe for AI agents to use?

ln-dc-msedge.net currently scores 32/100 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.
