Lookalike Domains

Lookalike search identifies domains that are visually or structurally similar to a specified keyword or domain, helping analysts detect typosquatting, impersonation attempts, and related DNS infrastructure.

How it works

The names being registered against you

Search a brand, a keyword, a domain, or a pattern. Validin returns the names close enough to be mistaken for it — a swapped character, a different TLD, your brand buried in a subdomain.

The search runs over newly observed domains, so what comes back is infrastructure being staged now, ahead of the first phishing email and well ahead of any blocklist.

  • Tune how close a match has to be, and how far back to look
  • Search for domains at any depth
  • Exclude trusted domains to cut the false positives
  • Open any result into its registration and hosting history
