Does anyone know if this site is legit, or can you recommend a better one? https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/url

At work I am receiving lots of legitimate looking emails offering business services, or trying to read like an internal email within the organization. I suspect it is just a matter of time before someone clicks on a link and installs ransomware or something on our business network.

Definitely "legit".
On Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirusTotal

I used it very often many years ago, uploading suspected malware for analysis.
I cannot remember that they had the option of analyzing suspicious links back then.
