Solutions > FLASHPOINT FOR brand and domain threats
Protect Against Brand and Domain Threats
Your brand and reputation are your most valuable assets. In today’s digital age, organizations rely on the internet to support their business, website, email, authentication, and more. This creates opportunities for the misuse or fraudulent use of brands and domains. Every year, cybercriminals register hundreds of thousands of fake domains to impersonate reputable brands and make a profit. These domains are used for malicious activity like phishing attacks, fraudulent websites, mobile app tampering, and trademark infringements.
Defend your brand online
Misuse or fraudulent use of domains, the constant menace of phishing attacks targeting unsuspecting users, and the legal complexities of trademark infringement and typosquatting can harm your reputation, lead to legal issues, and drain resources. Securing your business from the inside out means carving a space for your most public-facing liabilities: your domain name and brand assets.
To protect your brand from these threats, we actively and continuously monitor domains that could potentially infringe on your brand assets.
