DESCRIPTION

When I analyzed xnxx.com, it had a unique background color that was an appealing shade of blue. Notably, the thumbnails started very high up on the homepage thanks to there being a left menu rather than having all categories in the head section. I have noticed this becoming a new trend in adult websites where the pictures or videos need to be high on the webpage to help maximize user engagement. The left menu has pornstars and pornstar body types/sex acts etc as ways of navigating, which was good. However, I also noticed something unique which is at the top of the menu there were pornstar names as subcategories and the parent category was the type of body or sex scene that a pornstar can be found in. I thought that was an original and valuable way of helping sort the content and directing users to what they might be most interested in. I’ve known xnxx.com for decades and I know it’s a legitimate website. 2/5/2024

Is xnxx.com Safe?

Here, I analyzed xnxx.com for malware and malicious content to check if it was legit or a scam:

I checked xnxx.com on Sucuri, and it returned with no issues.

Security hardening flaws:

• Missing security header for ClickJacking Protection. Affected pages:
  https://www.xnxx.com/404javascript.js
  https://www.xnxx.com/404testpage4525d2fdc
• Missing Content-Security-Policy directive. Affected pages:
  https://www.xnxx.com/404javascript.js
  https://www.xnxx.com/404testpage4525d2fdc

I then ran a parasite scan with Unmask Parasites on xnxx.com, and it is clean.

I also checked xnxx.com on VirusTotal, and it is clean; however, it has a considerably unfavorable community score, with 37 downvotes.

Further, xnxx.com passed all blocklist engines on URLVoid.

In conclusion, with an index score of 6.8, we graded xnxx.com as relatively safe. The site looks legitimate in general, but it has a considerably unfavorable community score on VirusTotal and security header issues that prevent it from being graded higher. OVERALL GRADE: Relatively Safe.
