Challenge

Keep Pace with the Cybercrime Landscape

Securing clients from cyber threats requires Doppel to constantly amp up its threat detection capabilities in light of the speed at which attackers act. Threat actors are known for weaponizing Internet resources like domains and subdomains within minutes of their creation, making it crucial to detect and mitigate threats as fast as possible.

Doppel’s existing data providers, including open-source tools, failed to capture certain threats their customers noticed. Detection gaps and delays, resulting in an overall lack of visibility over suspicious and malicious web properties, put customers’ brands and organizations at risk, notably as their user or employee credentials could be stolen in unmitigated phishing attacks.

Solution

Real-Time and Extensive Domain Data Coverage

Doppel chose WhoisXML API’s comprehensive domain intelligence in the form of Subdomains Database Download, Newly Registered Domains Database, and Real-Time Domain Streaming to increase their visibility into new domains and subdomains.

Early access to high-quality, reliable, and extensive domain data enables Doppel to consistently discover and mitigate real threats. Specifically, WhoisXML API helped shed light on net new dangerous subdomains that their previous sources missed.
