Rapid Domain Takedowns That Protect Customers
Phishing continues to rank among the top cyber threats worldwide, fueled by human interaction and amplified over time. The longer a phishing site remains online, the greater the risk of fraud, data breaches, and account takeovers.
Stopping credential theft sounds simple in theory but in practice, it’s far more challenging. Effective disruption requires more than detection. It demands:
Strong relationships with hosts, registrars, and infrastructure providers
High-fidelity threat intelligence trusted by takedown partners
Seamless technical integrations enabling fast, automated mitigation with verified abuse submissions
Speed and trust are critical. Without them, takedowns stall, and attackers succeed.

Takedown APIs
Fortra Brand Protection simplifies digital threat mitigation by automating the submission and management of takedown requests for sites or posts infringing on your copyrighted content or intellectual property. Unlike manual takedown processes that can be delayed by long queues, Fortra’s established relationships with service providers accelerate removal, ensuring threats are taken offline faster and more reliably.
Strategic Relationships

Speed matters but acting fast isn’t easy. Threats evolve constantly, and service provider rules vary worldwide. It takes deep expertise, trusted relationships, and seamless coordination to take phishing sites offline at scale.

Unmatched Success Rate and Speed
Fortra Brand Protection streamlines domain takedown by working directly with domain registrars to accelerate threat remediation. Typically, domain takedown requests require extensive evidence of abuse, and final action rests with the registrar’s discretion. By leveraging established registrar relationships and a deep understanding of abuse criteria, we simplify this process, facilitating faster, more effective domain removals while ensuring all necessary documentation and compliance standards are met. Our Domain Monitoring service gathers the evidence needed and gets malicious domains taken offline quickly.
We know what qualifies for takedown and what evidence each registrar requires. Having cultivated an extensive network of trusted registrar partners, our customers benefit with access to automated killswitches, takedown APIs, preferred escalation procedures, the highest success rate, and the fastest speed of malicious takedown in the industry.
