What is a URL Scanner?

A URL Scanner is a security tool that checks a web link against constantly updated databases of known malicious sites.

Checking links for safety is a crucial habit in today's digital world:

Shortened URLs: Uncover the true destination of shortened links (like bit.ly) from social media or messages before clicking.
Untrusted Websites: Check links on unfamiliar websites or forums before navigating to them.
Protecting Others: Scan a link before you share it with friends, family, or colleagues to ensure you're not spreading a threat.
