Domain Protection for Banking & Fintech
Banks and fintechs are prime targets for phishing and impersonation. We help you find abusive domains, collect evidence, and escalate so you can protect account holders and trust.
The problem
Financial brands face constant domain abuse: fake login pages, wire fraud domains, and lookalikes that target your customers and employees. Regulators and auditors expect you to monitor and respond. Without dedicated domain protection, you react after incidents instead of stopping them early.
- Phishing domains mimicking your login and banking pages
- Impersonation domains used for payment and wire fraud
- Typosquatting and lookalike domains targeting your brand
- Fake mobile app and support site domains
- Executive and BEC-style impersonation via abusive domains
What we do
- Monitor the domain ecosystem for phishing and impersonation that targets your brand and customers
- Deliver evidence and workflows to escalate abuse to registrars and registries for takedown
- Use human-led analysis to prioritize and respond to the highest-risk abusive domains first
- Identify and report lookalike and typosquatting domains so you can defend your brand
- Provide documented domain abuse monitoring and response for security and audit discussions
How it works
- 1
Define your brand and key flows
You share your official domains, app names, and key product terms. We set up monitoring so we catch phishing and impersonation across login, payments, and support.
- 2
Discover and validate
We find abusive domains and validate each alert. You get a prioritized list with evidence so you can act on the worst threats first.
- 3
Evidence and escalate
We build evidence packages for registrar and host takedowns. You can submit using our workflows and track status.
- 4
Report and comply
Use our reports and audit trails to show regulators and auditors that you have a formal domain protection program.

Frequently asked questions
How does domain protection fit with our existing security stack?
DomainHQ focuses on the domain layer: finding and taking down abusive domains. We complement email security, endpoint, and fraud systems by addressing abuse at the source. Many banks use us alongside existing tools.
Can we show this to our regulator or auditor?
Yes. We provide documented monitoring, response metrics, and audit trails. Many clients use our reports and briefs to demonstrate a formal domain protection program.
Do you handle wire fraud or BEC?
We detect domains used for BEC and wire fraud (e.g. fake CEO or vendor domains). We do not monitor email or internal systems; we help you find and take down abusive domains and warn stakeholders.
What about open banking and third-party domains?
We can monitor domains of key partners or aggregators if they are in scope. We focus on abuse that affects your brand and customers; we do not manage your partners' security.
How fast can you take down a phishing domain?
We provide evidence and workflows so you can submit quickly. Takedown speed depends on the registrar or host. We track status and help you follow up to shorten time to removal.
