Domain Reputation

Domain Reputation monitoring is used to check the health of domains against major blacklists, in case a website has been flagged by search engines or users as malicious or unsafe. This feature helps administrators proactively monitor domain reputation and take action before it impacts end users.

Navigation: App Portal >> Server Health >> Domain Reputation

Domain reputation

If any domain is flagged under this section, checking the domain in a browser will most likely display a warning as well.


How It Works​

  • Domain reputation is checked against Google Safe Browsing database
  • It monitors all domains hosted on the server
  • The system automatically checks domain reputation at scheduled intervals
  • Any resolved issues will be cleared from the Domain Reputation page after the next scheduled scan on the server

Note: Domain reputation checks cannot be triggered manually. The scan is scheduled to run automatically in order to manage distributed load and to use the API efficiently.


Dashboard Summary​

Domain reputation

The Domain Reputation page displays a summary at the top, showing the last reloaded time along with the following counters:

  • Total Domains — Total number of domains hosted on the server that are being monitored
  • Flagged Domains — Number of domains currently blacklisted or flagged

Domain List​

The domain list table displays the details of flagged domains with the following columns:

  • Domain — The domain name that has been flagged
  • User — The user account associated with the domain
  • Reason — The reason the domain has been flagged
  • Status — The current status of the domain

As long as there are no blacklisted domains, the list will remain empty and display "No data found".


Important Notes​

  • cPGuard refers only to the Google Safe Browsing database for domain reputation checks
  • This feature covers all domains hosted on the server
  • If a domain is flagged, it is recommended to investigate and resolve the issue promptly, as flagged domains may show browser warnings to visitors
  • Once the issue is resolved, the domain will be cleared automatically after the next scheduled scan
