Service 98 / Takedowns & Enforcement
Scope & Technique.
Domain Abuse Reporting is an operational component of our comprehensive Cyber Intelligence Division. We combine lawful Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT Services) methodologies with digital footprint analysis to deliver court-admissible findings.
Professional Domain Abuse Investigation & Reporting Services
Domain names are frequently abused to support phishing campaigns, online scams, business impersonation, counterfeit websites, malware distribution, copyright infringement, and other forms of cyber-enabled fraud. When a domain is being used for malicious or unlawful purposes, timely reporting supported by accurate evidence can assist domain registrars and other service providers in reviewing the matter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you guarantee that a domain name will be suspended? [ANSWER ▾]
No. Decisions regarding suspension or other enforcement actions are made by the domain registrar, registry, or other responsible service provider according to their policies and applicable laws.
Can you investigate phishing domains? [ANSWER ▾]
Yes. We can review publicly available information, document technical indicators, and prepare evidence packages for phishing-related domain abuse reports.
Can you identify who owns a domain? [ANSWER ▾]
Where ownership information is publicly available or lawfully obtainable, we include it in our investigation. Many registrants use privacy protection services, so identifying the registrant is not always possible.
Can you help with typosquatting domains? [ANSWER ▾]
Yes. We can investigate domains that imitate legitimate businesses or brands and assist with preparing evidence for reporting or legal review.
How do I request Domain Abuse Reporting services? [ANSWER ▾]
