Domain Takedown Services

Rapid Threat Neutralization at Scale

When malicious domains are discovered, every minute of delay increases victim exposure. Manual takedown processes can take days or weeks. Webasto's 15-minute average takedown time represents a 100x improvement over industry standards.

We handle the complete takedown lifecycle from threat confirmation through post-removal monitoring, coordinating with registrars, hosting providers, and DNS providers for comprehensive removal.

The Takedown Process

Step 1: Threat Validation

Analysts validate detected domains meet removal criteria, confirming malicious intent and documenting evidence that complies with registrar policies and legal frameworks.

Step 2: Evidence Collection

Comprehensive evidence packages include timestamped screenshots, WHOIS records, DNS configuration, and network infrastructure details. Evidence is cryptographically signed for compliance purposes.

Step 3: Multi-Channel Submission

Takedown requests go simultaneously to registrars, hosting providers, and browser safe browsing services through API integrations and priority contact channels.

Step 4: Escalation Management

Our enforcement team escalates delays through established registrar relationships, ICANN complaints, and law enforcement referrals when needed.

Step 5: Verification and Monitoring

Post-removal monitoring confirms domains remain inactive and detects resurrection attempts. Clients receive confirmation reports documenting the complete timeline.

Global Registrar Relationships

Priority processing agreements with leading registrars establish expedited review for verified threats. Trusted reporter status earned through years of accurate reporting ensures priority handling.
