5 threat patterns detected

high

tls connection failed

Could not establish TLS connection

critical

brand impersonation

Domain s-microsoft.com is a typosquat/impersonation of microsoft.com. The 's-' prefix is a common evasion technique to mimic the legitimate Microsoft brand while using a distinct registrable domain, likely to deceive users or AI agents into trusting the domain as an official Microsoft property. (location: domain: s-microsoft.com)

critical

phishing

The domain s-microsoft.com combines Microsoft brand impersonation with a failed TLS connection (connected=false, cert_valid=false), which is consistent with a phishing infrastructure that may not yet be fully deployed or is serving content over HTTP only. The combination of a Microsoft-lookalike domain and invalid/missing TLS certificate strongly indicates phishing intent. (location: metadata.json: tls.connected=false, tls.cert_valid=false, domain=s-microsoft.com)

high

credential harvesting

Domains impersonating Microsoft (s-microsoft.com) are frequently used as credential harvesting pages targeting Microsoft account credentials (Azure, Office 365, Outlook). The domain structure and brand impersonation pattern are consistent with known Microsoft credential phishing campaigns. (location: domain: s-microsoft.com)

medium

malicious redirect

The hosting reputation is listed as Unknown and TLS is not connected, which may indicate the domain is parked or used as a redirect intermediary. Domains of this pattern are commonly used to redirect victims to downstream phishing or malware payloads. (location: metadata.json: hosting.reputation=Unknown, tls.connected=false)

FAQ: how to interpret this assessment

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

Is s-microsoft.com safe for AI agents to use?

s-microsoft.com currently scores 38/100 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.
