Evidence and Takedown Workflow: A Practical Guide

How to build an evidence and takedown workflow that speeds up response and satisfies legal and compliance requirements.

From finding to takedown

Once you discover an abusive domain, you need to identify the right party (registrar, host, or registry), gather evidence, and send a clear request. Delays usually come from incomplete evidence or sending the request to the wrong place. A structured workflow fixes that: same steps every time, with evidence packages that your legal team or counsel can use as-is.

What to include in evidence

Include the abusive URL and domain, screenshots of the abusive content, WHOIS and DNS data, and a short description of the abuse (phishing, impersonation, etc.). We assemble this for our clients so they can forward it to their legal team or send it themselves. We assist your legal counsel by providing all the evidence they need to take action.

Who sends the request

You (or your legal counsel) send the takedown request. We draft the email and provide the evidence; we do not send it on your behalf. If the recipient does not honor the request, you may need to engage a lawyer; we can help arrange one if needed.
