HTTPS now has its own monitor
We enabled SiteLock’s certificate monitor on November 11. Its first check returned OK and confirmed a Let’s Encrypt certificate valid through January 1, 2027. HTTPS encrypts traffic between your browser and open-trader.cc. The monitor checks the certificate periodically, giving us another way to spot certificate problems. How Let’s Encrypt works
What the malware and spam checks covered
On November 11, SiteLock’s scheduled file scan checked 148 files in the public static files folder and reported zero malicious or suspicious files. Its November 10 public webpage scan reported zero malware findings across the two pages it reached. These are separate checks with different coverage. How SiteLock’s webpage scan works
SiteLock’s November 10 email reputation scan also reported OK for both Spamhaus and SURBL. The results apply to the lists SiteLock checked at that time.

How to read these results
These checks provide evidence of a valid encrypted connection and no detections within the files, pages and blocklists examined. Other providers can reach different conclusions. Gridinsoft told us it removed its own Suspicious Website detection after reviewing the public deployment. Its separate public review still reads Inconclusive, at 56/100, and shows mixed third-party results. The checks described here cover specific aspects of website security. Account security, custody, trading risk and withdrawal handling require separate evidence. Gridinsoft public review
