Safety URL Scans

Links that stay trusted

Every destination is screened for malware and phishing the moment a link is created, and re-checked every day after — so your links keep passing the corporate filters that quietly block generic shorteners.

Links that stay trusted in the xengo console
Always screened

Trusted on day one, and day one hundred

A shortener is only as safe as the worst link on its domain — one bad destination and the whole domain gets blocklisted. xengo screens every destination in real time when a link is made, blocks and logs anything malicious, and re-scans daily so a destination that turns bad later doesn't stay live. That's how your links keep sailing through the proxies that block bit.ly by default.

  1. 1

    Screened on create

    Every new destination is checked for malware and phishing before it goes live.

  2. 2

    Re-scanned daily

    Live links are re-checked every day, so nothing rots quietly.

  3. 3

    Blocked and logged

    Anything flagged is auto-blocked and recorded, no manual policing.

Checked before it's live

Every destination is screened for malware, phishing and other malicious content the moment you create the link. Clean links go live; anything suspect is held or blocked, so your domain only ever carries destinations that pass.

  • Real-time screening on every new link
  • Malware and phishing caught up front
  • Your domain only carries clean destinations

Re-checked every single day

A safe link today can point somewhere nasty next month if the destination is compromised. xengo re-scans live destinations daily and flags any that turn bad, so your links stay trustworthy long after you've printed and shared them.

  • Daily re-scan of every live destination
  • Catches links that turn bad after launch
  • Your printed codes stay safe over time

Bad links, on the record

When a destination is flagged it's blocked automatically and written to the record, so there's no manual policing and a clear trail of what was stopped and when. Abuse gets nothing, and you get the evidence.

  • Flagged destinations auto-blocked, no manual work
  • A clear logged trail of what was stopped
  • Abusers get nothing on your domain

Frequently asked questions

Are the links safe?

Yes — every destination is screened for malware and phishing when the link is created, and re-scanned every day after.

Why do generic shorteners get blocked at work?

One bad link can blocklist an entire shared domain. xengo screens every destination and blocks abuse, so its links keep passing corporate proxies.

What happens if a destination turns malicious?

The daily re-scan flags it, and any destination found malicious is blocked automatically and logged — no manual policing.

Is safety screening on every plan?

Yes — screening and abuse protection are on for all tiers, with no upgrade required.

Does screening slow down my links?

No — screening happens at creation and in a daily background re-scan, so redirects for your visitors stay fast.
