Sorry, dear shurl.ch community — but once again, this post is about what matters most: your safety and the safety of your users.
As of today, abuse.ch is an official part of our security suite. This adds another strong layer of protection, helping us detect and block abusive or dangerous links already during creation.
What Is abuse.ch?
abuse.ch is an independent Swiss platform with a clear mission:
👉 to fight malware, phishing, botnets, and other cyber threats.
It collects, analyzes, and shares security intelligence to help platforms, companies, and service providers identify malicious activity early and reduce risks. abuse.ch collaborates closely with the global security community and is widely regarded as a trusted source of threat data.
More Protection — Right from the Start
By integrating abuse.ch, we can identify suspicious URLs even earlier. Potentially harmful links are checked during creation and, if necessary, blocked or never activated.
This means more security for:
Link and QR code creators
Visitors redirected via shurl.ch
The entire shurl.ch community
Security Is Our Top Priority
We continuously invest in improving our security measures because we believe that a useful service must also be a safe one.
💙 Thank you for using shurl.ch responsibly and for helping us keep the platform secure for everyone.
