Is PornTube.com Safe?
I conducted a series of malware tests to find out if porntube.com is safe and legit. Here are the results:
I installed the Malwarebytes Browser Guard on my Edge browser and was able to browse the site porntube.com without any issues.
To check this further I ran malware scans with Malwarebytes and Spybot on my computer after browsing the site youporn.com and they returned no malware detection. I also ran a system-wide scan with Microsoft Defender and no malware was found.
To try to confirm that the site is clean, I also checked the site porntube.com on the online malware scanner Sucuri and it returned with no major issues. You can see the same here: https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/porntube.com
Sucuri says the site porntube.com is a low security risk. Sucuri found no malware. It also didn’t find any defacements or injected spam. Moreover, I can see that no security vendors associated with Sucuri have blacklisted the domain, meaning none of them think the site is malicious.
Some improvements can be made such as solving the missing security headers listed below:
Missing security header to prevent Content Type sniffing. Affected pages:
https://www.porntube.com/ for Google’s UA
https://www.porntube.com/videosMissing Strict-Transport-Security security header. Affected pages:
https://www.porntube.com/ for Google’s UA
https://www.porntube.com/videosMissing Content-Security-Policy directive. We recommend to add the following CSP directives (you can use default-src if all values are the same): script-src, object-src, base-uri, frame-src
However, none of those are enough to change the overall grade of the scan from being a low security risk.
Lastly, I ran a malware scan with VirusTotal on the domain porntube.com and no security vendor has flagged the domain as malicious. You can see the same here: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/domain/porntube.com
In conclusion, PornTube is a low security risk according to Sucuri. No malware, defacements, or injected spam was found during our scans. Moreover, no security vendor associated with Sucuri or VirusTotal has flagged the domain as malicious.
