Phishing Investigation

Investigate suspected phishing domains with an evidence package. It collects DNS records, WHOIS data, and SSL certificates, and creates a timestamped report for takedown requests.

What's included

Evidence package Timestamped documentation

Registrant info WHOIS/RDAP data collection

Infrastructure Hosting and DNS details

Threat intel Reputation and risk data

RDAPDNS lookupSSL checkReputationIP lookup

Interactive intelligence tool

Run the check, then ship the workflow

Use the browser tool for a fast answer, then move the same logic into scripts, monitoring, or product flows when it becomes repeatable.

Start with the live form

Enter a domain, URL, IP, email, or record and get a focused result without setup.

Review decision-ready signals

Outputs highlight statuses, risks, records, and next actions instead of raw provider noise.

Automate the workflow that works

Use the request and response examples to turn a one-off check into an API call or recipe.

What this tool helps you decide

Each page is shaped around a practical operational question, not just a raw lookup.

Signal

See the current DNS, registration, security, pricing, or reputation evidence.

Context

Compare the result with related checks so the next move is easier to trust.

Action

Copy examples, open linked tools, or move into API documentation when you need scale.

Trust signals before you integrate

Transparent docs, authenticated requests, and visible reliability details make it easier to evaluate DomScan before you ship.

Live Service status

Check live service health and documented failure responses before you integrate.

OpenAPI API artifacts

OpenAPI, Swagger, Postman, CLI, SDK, and MCP links are one click away.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this for takedown requests?

Yes, the report is designed to provide evidence for abuse reports to registrars, hosting providers, and brand protection services.

Is registrant info always available?

Not always. Because of GDPR, many registrations are now privacy-protected. We collect whatever public information RDAP provides.

How quickly should I act?

Phishing sites are often short-lived. Run this investigation immediately upon discovery and submit takedown requests as soon as possible.
