How monitoring works

1. Initial setup

  • Definition of brand terms to monitor
  • Configuration of variants and fuzzy matching
  • Inventory of domains already registered by third parties
  • Risk prioritization

2. Continuous monitoring

  • Global DNS zone file scanning
  • Certificate Transparency monitoring (new SSL = new sites)
  • WHOIS analysis on new registrations
  • Web scraping for abusive content

3. Alert & Intelligence

  • Real-time notification for suspicious registrations
  • Automatic risk classification (low/medium/high/critical)
  • Monthly report with trends and statistics
  • Quarterly briefing with recommendations

4. Enforcement

  • Cease & desist sending support
  • UDRP procedure management (ICANN dispute resolution)
  • Coordination with registrars for takedown
  • Legal action support

Why Ekados is different

As an ICANN and Registro.it accredited registrar, we have direct access to ICANN and Registro.it enforcement mechanisms, relationships with other registrars for rapid takedowns, and specific expertise in the domain name system that a traditional brand protection agency does not have.
