About cornell.edu

We could not find out when cornell.edu was created. It is hosted in United States. Its content suggests it is an Education website. It is one of the most visited websites worldwide (#561). None of the security databases we monitor list it. Its connection is encrypted (padlock in the address bar) — good, though scam sites can have this too.
