The DefendDomain platform

Find lookalike domains and get them taken down

We find web addresses made to look like yours and tell you when one is set up to send email or shows a copy of your website. If one is used against you, we get it taken down.

The free scan checks 150+ lookalikes of your domain in a couple of minutes and emails you the report. No account, no card.

Lookalikes re-checked every hour. Your own domains checked every day.

  • 5 layers of protection: four watch for impersonation, one checks your own domains
  • ~500 lookalikes watched per domain, each re-checked every hour
  • Up to 12 places sent the evidence when you start a takedown
  • 8 alert channels, from email and Teams to your security tools

What DefendDomain does, in three parts

You do not need a security team. On Pro you approve each takedown with one click; on Enterprise our analysts run them for you.

Five layers: four look outward, one looks inward

Four layers watch for people pretending to be you, each for a different sign, so a lookalike missed by one can still be caught by another. The fifth checks your own domains for the gaps that make pretending easy. Bought separately, that is two suppliers and nobody joining the two halves up.

  1. Layer 1

    Lookalike monitoring

    Around 500 lookalikes per domain, re-checked every hour, including ones set up only to send email

  2. Layer 2

    Embedded markers

    An optional script or 1×1 image on pages you choose, which reports a copy of the page as it loads

  3. Layer 3

    Content fingerprinting

    Your site's wording searched for on the web, to find copies rebuilt without your code

  4. Layer 4

    Certificate monitoring

    100+ public certificate logs watched for your name as new entries appear

  5. Layer 5

    Security posture

    A daily check of your own domains and subdomains, graded A to F

One list of domains for all five

When you tell us a lookalike is yours, it leaves the threat list and joins the Layer 5 scorecard in the same step. How prevention works

To start

Give us your domains; nothing else is needed. The website marker is optional: a small script or a 1×1 image on pages you choose.

One dashboard for every threat

Every lookalike is sorted automatically: threats are alerted, doubtful ones go on a watch list, and the rest are marked safe. No report goes to anyone outside your company until you confirm.

One list for all threats
Filter by type and status, whichever layer found it
No repeat alerts
Repeat sightings of the same threat are grouped, so your inbox stays quiet
A status for every threat
Five statuses, from new, to live attack, to resolved, with a full audit trail
Evidence collected for you
Screenshots, who registered the domain, its DNS records and where it is hosted
The signals behind each score
Each Layer 1 alert lists the signals that rated it and how much each one counted

Role-based access for your team

Three roles give each person the access their job needs, across as many brands as you run.

Roles
One per person
System Admin
Full access, including users and settings
Threat Manager
Adds domains, manages lookalikes and responds to threats
Security Observer
Read-only access to company data

Invite teammates by email and keep a record of who joined, left or changed role. With multi-company support you run several brands from one login, and each company's data stays separate.

Looking after clients as an MSP or IT provider? The partner console puts all your client companies in one login. See the partner programme

Free scan. No account, no card details.

See which lookalikes of your domain already exist

The free scan checks 150+ lookalikes of your domain and shows which are registered and which can send email as you. Monitoring then watches around 500 per domain, every hour.

  • Typos, other endings and added words, such as yourcompany-invoices.com
  • Which ones are registered, and which are set up to send email as you
  • The report in your inbox, usually in a couple of minutes. No account, no card details, no sales call.

When the scan is done we ask for a work email to send the report to. Gmail, Outlook.com and other free addresses are not accepted.
