Lite Phishing Checker API

The Lite Phishing Checker API is a powerful tool that allows you to check URLs and determine if they are known phishing attempts. With this API, you can easily validate and safeguard against potential phishing threats by quickly identifying suspicious URLs.

About the API:

The Lite Phishing Checker API is a valuable resource for organizations and developers looking to enhance their security measures and protect against phishing attacks. This API offers a straightforward and efficient method to check URLs and determine whether they are known phishing attempts.

Phishing attacks pose a significant threat to individuals and businesses alike. Cybercriminals employ various techniques to deceive users into sharing sensitive information, such as passwords, financial details, or personal data, through deceptive websites or emails. The Lite Phishing Checker API helps mitigate this risk by providing an automated process to verify URLs and identify potential phishing attempts.

By integrating the Lite Phishing Checker API into your systems, you can proactively assess the safety of URLs. Simply send a request to the API, including the URL you want to check, and the API will analyze it against a comprehensive database of known phishing attempts. The API swiftly processes the request and returns a response indicating whether the URL is flagged as a potential phishing threat or not.

This API offers several advantages in the battle against phishing attacks. It saves valuable time and resources by automating the URL verification process, eliminating the need for manual checks. Moreover, the extensive database of known phishing attempts ensures that the API is equipped to identify a wide range of potential threats, keeping you one step ahead of cybercriminals.

Integrating the Lite Phishing Checker API can benefit a variety of applications and systems. Security-focused applications can utilize the API to provide real-time phishing protection for their users. This can be especially beneficial for web browsers, email clients, or security software, ensuring users are warned about potential threats before interacting with suspicious URLs.

Organizations can also leverage the API to enhance their existing security infrastructure. By incorporating the Lite Phishing Checker API into their web filtering systems or network gateways, businesses can effectively block access to known phishing websites, bolstering their overall security posture.

Furthermore, developers can integrate the Lite Phishing Checker API into their own applications or workflows to automate the process of phishing URL validation. This can be particularly useful in scenarios where users input URLs, such as form submissions or user-generated content, where automated checks can help prevent potential risks.

In conclusion, the Lite Phishing Checker API provides a valuable solution for assessing the legitimacy of URLs and identifying potential phishing attempts. By integrating this API into your systems, you can bolster your security measures, protect users against phishing attacks, and mitigate the risks associated with deceptive websites.

Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.

Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world’s most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]

Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.

The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.

Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]

Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.

API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.

Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.

To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.

To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, look at the ‘X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining’ header. For example, if your plan allows 1000 requests per month and you've used 100, this header will show 900.

To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit’ header. For instance, if your plan includes 1000 requests per month, this header will display 1000.

The ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset’ header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3600, it means 3600 seconds are left until the limit resets.

Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.

You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]

To let you experience our APIs without any commitment, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make API calls at no cost during this period. Please note that you can only use this trial once, so make sure to use it with the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs provide a free trial, but some may not support it.

After 7 days, you will be charged the full amount for the plan you were subscribed to during the trial. Therefore, it’s important to cancel before the trial period ends. Refund requests for forgetting to cancel on time are not accepted.

When you subscribe to an API trial, you can make only 25% of the calls allowed by that plan. For example, if the API plan offers 1000 calls, you can make only 250 during the trial. To access the full number of calls offered by the plan, you will need to subscribe to the full plan.
