Abstract: A site analysis system to determine a security level of a website comprises a communication transceiver and a processing system. The communication transceiver is configured to receive content information associated with the website describing a current state of the website, receive historical event information associated with the website, and receive external information associated with the website from a source external to the website. The processing system is configured to process the content information to determine a content score for the website, process the historical event information and the external information to determine a reputational score for the website, and process the content score and the reputational score to generate a final score for the website.
