A side-by-side comparison of two URL safety tools, and which one to use depending on what you actually need.
F-Secure's free Link Checker tells you whether F-Secure's reputation service considers a URL safe. It is fast and simple, but it is a single opinion. Scanify runs the same URL through multiple engines via VirusTotal (F-Secure among them), adds Google Safe Browsing, urlscan.io, WHOIS, SSL and redirect analysis, and shows the full breakdown so you can see whether one vendor or forty flagged the page.
