How To Clear Chrome Dangerous Site Warning Message For Sub-Domain

Posted on April 17, 2025

I’m new here to DigitalOcean and have just set up an docker instance of N8N. Everything is working as expected, however, my sub-domain is being flagged as a “Dangerous Site” by Google Chrome. I’m also getting security warning via Google Search Console. I’ve checked with my hosting provider and there are no issues to report. However, there does appear to be an issue with the IP address following a scan with Sucuri.

I couldn’t find anything in this community so guess this is something that doesn’t happen very often?

Hey Martin 👋

Yup, that can definitely happen, but here’s what I’d do:

Head over to Google Search Console and request a review after double-checking everything’s clean: https://search.google.com/search-console/about
Install an SSL certificate and make sure to use HTTPS: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-20-04
You can also toss Cloudflare in front of your domain, it’ll mask your IP and add a nice layer of protection.
If the IP is still causing trouble, consider spinning up a new Droplet to get a fresh one.

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes!
