What Is Brand Protection Software?

Brand protection software detects threats that exploit your company’s identity online. The primary target: lookalike domains that impersonate your brand to steal credentials.

How Brand Impersonation Works:

Lookalike Domains: Attackers register domains like “arnazon.com” or “rnicrosoft.com” that look legitimate at a glance
Phishing Infrastructure: Fake login pages harvest usernames and passwords from unsuspecting victims
Executive Impersonation: Business email compromise attacks use fake domains to authorize fraudulent wire transfers

Where Breachsense Fits:

Most brand protection tools focus on trademark enforcement and counterfeit products. Breachsense takes a different approach with two layers of protection:

Attack Surface Monitoring: Our ASM service builds a map of your digital footprint and continuously scans for lookalike domains. We detect homoglyphs, typosquatting variations, and alternate TLDs that attackers register to impersonate your brand.

Credential Theft Detection: When impersonation attacks do succeed, we detect the stolen credentials in stealer logs and dark web markets before attackers can exploit them.

Credential Theft at Scale

Zscaler ThreatLabz found over 30,000 lookalike domains targeting just 500 major websites in six months. More than 10,000 were confirmed malicious. These fake sites harvest credentials that attackers use for account takeover and lateral movement.

Infostealer Delivery

IBM X-Force 2025 reports an 84% increase in phishing emails delivering infostealers. Brand impersonation attacks trick users into downloading malware that steals saved passwords and session tokens from their browsers.

Financial Fraud

Business email compromise attacks use fake domains to impersonate executives. The FBI reports BEC losses exceeded $2.9 billion in 2023. Attackers register domains one character off from yours to authorize fraudulent transactions.
