zveloDB is the industry’s most advanced and comprehensive URL Categorization Database which categorizes content into topic-based, objectionable, and malicious category groupings for applications including DNS filtering, web content filtering, brand safety & contextual targeting, and subscriber analytics.
zvelo’s meticulously curated datasets for Malicious URLs, Phishing URLs, and Web Content Categorizations, support new tiered service offering and drive revenue growth for a global Remote Browser Isolation provider.
While both can be harmful, dangerous, or threaten the safety of online users, there are very clear distinctions between Malicious vs Objectionable content. Understand how zvelo differentiates between them.

First off, let’s make it clear that there is nothing inherently malicious about the act of cryptocurrency mining. Rather, over the past couple of years cybercriminals and bad actors have leveraged existing exploits and found unsecured hardware to implant Cryptocurrency Mining code and steal CPU/GPU cycles from computer owners and website visitors without their knowledge. These activities are what we refer to as “Malicious Cryptocurrency Mining”.
Since the release of BIND 9 in 2010, RPZ has proven a powerful technology for security and network management—allowing organizations to implement an additional DNS configuration layer.
