Ubuntu
Ubuntu is a popular Linux distribution very commonly used as the operating system for web servers. ScanMalware infers it from server banners that disclose the OS, such as “Apache/2.4.x (Ubuntu)”.
The OS string is informational and often left exposed by default. It helps profile the server but, on its own, says nothing about whether the hosted site is safe.

How ScanMalware detects Ubuntu
Ubuntu is detected by analysing the response headers, HTML markup, JavaScript runtime and asset URLs captured when ScanMalware loads the site in a real headless browser.
From any scan you can pivot into related signals — JARM TLS fingerprints, ASN ownership and BGP routing, certificate history, JavaScript analysis and the overall security verdict — to understand not just that Ubuntu is present, but how it is being used. Open the full search interface for Ubuntu →
