Malicious Domain Discovery
Find domains that are part of attacks against your organization: malware, C2, and staging infrastructure. We correlate and prioritize so you can block and escalate.
The problem
Attackers use many domains for malware, command-and-control (C2), and staging. Discovering these before or during an incident helps you block, take down, and understand scope. Generic threat intel rarely maps directly to your brand and infrastructure.
- Domains hosting malware or phishing that target your brand
- C2 and attack infrastructure linked to campaigns against you
- Staging and redirect chains used in attacks
- Threat actor infrastructure that overlaps with your threat model
What we do
- Malware hosting detection
- C2 infrastructure identification
- Attack staging domain discovery
- Threat actor infrastructure mapping
- Cross-campaign correlation
How it works
- 1
Define your scope and brand
You provide your domains, brand, and (optionally) threat priorities. We align discovery to what is relevant to your organization.
- 2
Discover and correlate
We use monitoring, intel, and behavioral analysis to find domains tied to malware, C2, or campaigns. We correlate so you see clusters and actors where possible.
- 3
Validate and prioritize
Our analysts validate findings and rank by impact. You get actionable lists with evidence and context.
- 4
Block and escalate
You can use indicators for blocking (e.g. firewall, email). We also support evidence packages for takedown where appropriate.
Example: anonymized case snapshot
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from generic threat intelligence?
We focus on domains that are relevant to your brand and infrastructure. We correlate to your monitoring and to campaigns that target or affect you, not just a generic feed.
Do you provide indicators for blocking?
Yes. You can export domain and related indicators for use in firewalls, email security, or SIEM. Format depends on your plan and tools.
Can you help with active incident response?
We can prioritize discovery and evidence during an incident. We do not replace your IR team; we add domain-level visibility and evidence so you can block and escalate faster.
How do you attribute to threat actors?
We correlate infrastructure and behavior where possible. Formal attribution (naming groups or nations) is limited and uncertain; we focus on actionable links and patterns.
What about zero-day or novel infrastructure?
We combine known patterns with behavioral analysis. New infrastructure may take time to link to campaigns; we update as we see new data and feedback.
