I’ve noticed recently that many, or most, of my search results for Elastic documentation are taking me elastic[.]aiops[.]work. This hosts what looks like a clone of the main [elastic.co](http://elastic.co) website, though with either older information or some kind of derivative. I can’t tell if this site is legitimate, but basic OSINT research doesn’t seem to show anything related to the real Elasticsearch B.V. company. Can anyone shed light on whether this is something official and genuine or not? ---

Hi @wildflower Welcome to the community. Interesting... I asked internally. ---

@wildflower I checked internally that site is definitely **not** something create / managed by Elastic. So perhaps ignore those websites while we are trying to fix the problem. ---

Jus tested here and this site appears when doing searchs on duck duck go for example, when using google this does not shows up. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/0/c0e816b231daae0bcd3f8c9aba6222eb7fed80b3.png) ---

Yeah, apparently we know, and there is work being done, but it is slow going. To be clear, it is not an official site. ---

Thank you for checking and confirming. I’m going to block that on my own things as well as report it to a couple of the security solutions we use for re-classification of the domain/URLs. Regarding @[leandrojmp](https://discuss.elastic.co/u/leandrojmp)’s comment, that’s what I’ve seen as well. I use DuckDuckGo and this other website features prominently there. Interestingly (concerningly?), some research tools suggest that aiops[.]work has very, very few subdomains associated with it, which is unlike many websites. It’s like it exists only to spoof Elastic and hosts/shows just a couple other things. I didn’t probe too far since I don’t trust that domain. I’m sure the internal teams are well ahead of me in working on it, but since it’s running through Cloudflare I would have hoped they’d respond to the clear intellectual property claims a lot better.
