Yes it is. There were sightings of another really big shark called the sleeping shark,(which is really rare), but that was a long time ago.

What is the world's biggest shark ever?

The below is incorrect, even if you take megalodon out of the picture, the basking shark and whale shark are larger than the great white. However, if you believe the 7 inch shark teeth as evidence, then the megalodon was the largest shark. But it went extinct about 1.5 million years ago. The Great White Shark. People think it is a Megalodon, but that is incorrect. There is no proof that a Megalodon is real, so for now it is the Great White.
