For brand protection, trust, and security teams
Use this workflow to create a defensible queue for review and defensive-registration decisions.
Solution for brand protection
Find and prioritize domains that could be mistaken for your brand
Combine similarity, typosquatting generation, domain status, trust evidence, and monitoring into a repeatable review path.
A smaller, evidence-ranked review queue
Focus attention on registered or newly observed candidates with relevant naming and infrastructure evidence.
A similar name is a lead, not proof of abuse
Lookalike generation can produce many benign, unavailable, or inconclusive candidates. Review needs status and trust context.
This workflow identifies risk signals, not malicious intent
Name similarity is not website similarity, unknown is not available, and registration is not proof of impersonation.
Workflow
Focus attention on registered or newly observed candidates with relevant naming and infrastructure evidence.
Generate and compare likely variants
Use Typosquatting and Domain Similarity for keyboard, omission, transposition, homoglyph, and text-based naming evidence.
Separate registered, available, and unknown
Check candidate domain status and keep inconclusive results out of both the safe and actionable buckets.
Enrich and monitor the strongest candidates
Add DNS, certificate, reputation, and website evidence, then establish a Brand Monitor baseline for new registrations.
Protect the example brand
Generate variants around example, check their domain status, and investigate registered names with trust signals.
