Technology to protect your brand and your bottom line

Your job is to protect your company’s highly valuable assets. But as brands proliferate online to address changing consumer behavior, finding instances of brand infringement and misrepresentation grows harder. You need to be constantly monitoring malicious activity across web, social, and other digital channels. Doing this manually is ineffective, time-consuming, and would prevent you from doing your core job.

That’s why some of the biggest brands in the world use Netcraft’s highly automated cybercrime detection and takedown technology to identify, disrupt and take down violations of your intellectual property.

End-to-end detection and takedown solutions

Netcraft uses extensive automation to detect and disrupt over 100 types of cyber attacks, including counterfeit goods, fake shops, and intellectual property infringement. Once an attack is detected and validated as malicious, it is added to Netcraft’s site feeds which allows threat data partners (including major browser and antivirus companies), to block access and protect billions of people from exposure.

At the same time, we gather critical evidence and information about the attack to share with the hosting providers, domain registrars, webmasters and other parties involved with the attack.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your website is the cornerstone of your online identity. Attacks that are carried out on websites purporting to be your organization – and therefore on your brand – can have devastating effects on your reputation, for both your existing customer base and future prospects.

Cybercriminals use a variety of tactics, including setting up fake shops that drive traffic away from legitimate sites, phishing sites that steal the credentials of would-be customers, or survey scams that impersonate brands to carry out fake contests with nonexistent prizes.

A suspected scam website can be analyzed, validated, and takedown notifications dispatched within minutes of discovery. Content can be taken down within hours if the company that’s hosting the fraudulent content is reputable.

The service is heavily automated and operates without intervention 24/7, with manual involvement from Netcraft’s in-house cybercrime experts only required for a tiny minority for novel attacks.

Netcraft’s automated detection techniques include a global network of fetch locations, rule-based matching, and machine-based learning. We also deploy an automated ‘victim simulator’ that proactively interacts with reported malicious URLs, filling in forms with plausible data and fully exercising multi-stage phishing sites.

Without documented evidence of malicious activity, hosting providers are unable to confirm content is malicious and against their own terms of service. Without which, they are unable to take down content. We gather and present evidence of the cyber attack to clearly demonstrate the fraudulent use to those with the ability to remove the illegal content.
