That mirror is one of the external mirrors that is listed on
http://mirror-status.centos.org/
So my first question would be : why does TrendMicro suspect it's a
malicious site ?
If the host is compromised, that's worth mentioning the mirror admin
(I'll send him an email with the contact email address he provided us
when registering that mirror)

Can you give us details about the reason why TrendMicro thinks that
node is "malicious" ? I'll start a dedicated thread on the
centos-mirror list if needed
(https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-mirror)

Thanks,
