The Downloads section allows you to monitor all of the downloads available on your site and verify that they are being transmitted securely from trustworthy sites.

Use Cases

  • Verify that downloads are hosted by safe websites. Monitoring this section lets you make sure that files are being transmitted securely over HTTPS and not being hosted on blacklisted sites.

Detection

During the crawling process, the scanner connects to links found and determines if they are downloadable content.

Risk

Risk is assigned by verifying that downloads are using HTTPS and the destination sites are not flagged for malware, phishing, or adult content.

  • High (● Red): Phishing or malware detected.

  • Medium (● Yellow): The download is not using HTTPS.

  • Low (● Green): No significant risks are associated with the download.

Downloads rated High or Medium risk will create .

We recommend fixing High and Medium risk issues immediately.
