24/7 Domain Monitoring & Discovery
Our monitoring engine scans newly registered domains across all major TLDs and ccTLDs in real time, so you see threats before they are weaponized against your organization.
The problem
Abusive domains are registered every day. Without continuous monitoring, you only learn about phishing, typosquatting, or impersonation after customers or employees are harmed. Manual checks and one-off scans cannot keep up with the scale of the domain ecosystem.
- New domains that mimic your brand or login pages
- Typosquatting and homophone variants of your key domains
- IDN and Unicode lookalikes that bypass simple filters
- Domains registered in hundreds of TLDs and ccTLDs

- Global TLD and ccTLD coverage (1,000+ extensions)
- New domain registration discovery in near real time
- Typosquatting and keyboard-proximity pattern detection
- Homophone and lookalike identification
- IDN and Unicode abuse detection
- Real-time threat correlation and human-led validation
How it works
- 1
Configure your brand and scope
You provide your official domains, brand terms, and key marks. We set up monitoring rules and priority levels so the engine focuses on what matters most to you.
- 2
Continuous scanning
Our engine scans new registrations and existing domains across the global namespace. Patterns are matched against your brand, and potential threats are flagged for review.
- 3
Human validation
DomainHQ analysts review alerts using proprietary tools and domain expertise. False positives are filtered out so your team only sees actionable threats.
- 4
Prioritized alerts and evidence
Validated threats are scored and delivered with initial evidence. You can request full forensic packages and escalate to takedown when ready.

Frequently asked questions
What TLDs and ccTLDs do you monitor?
We monitor a broad set of gTLDs and ccTLDs (1,000+ extensions). Coverage includes major commercial TLDs as well as country-code TLDs that are commonly abused. Specific coverage can be discussed for your region and risk profile.
How quickly do you detect new abusive domains?
Our engine processes new registration data and ongoing changes in near real time. Alerts are validated by our team and typically delivered within the same business day, depending on volume and severity.
Do you reduce false positives?
Yes. Every alert is reviewed by analysts with domain and DNS abuse experience. We filter out benign registrations and low-risk lookalikes so you only act on genuine threats.
Can the monitoring engine integrate with our systems?
We provide a secure dashboard, notifications, and evidence packages. API and integration options are available on higher-tier plans; contact us to discuss your requirements.
What happens after a threat is detected?
You receive an alert with context and risk score. You can request full evidence (WHOIS, DNS, screenshots) and use our takedown and escalation workflows to notify registrars, registries, or hosts as needed.
