What is typosquatting detection?
Typosquatting is when attackers register domains that mimic yours — swapped letters, extra characters, different extensions — to impersonate your brand in phishing and fraud. Typosquatting detection finds those domains before they cause harm.
HookPhish continuously watches for lookalike and newly registered domains that resemble yours, scores how dangerous each one is, and gives you the evidence to monitor, block or request a takedown.

Continuously detect typo, homoglyph and extension variations of your domains as they're registered.

Frequently asked questions
What is typosquatting?+
Typosquatting is when attackers register domains that closely mimic a real one — using swapped letters, extra characters or different extensions — to impersonate a brand for phishing and fraud.
How does HookPhish detect lookalike domains?+
HookPhish continuously monitors for typo, homoglyph and alternate-extension variations of your domains, scores their risk, and alerts you when a lookalike is registered or becomes active.
Can it help with takedowns?+
Yes. HookPhish packages the evidence you need to request takedowns and to block malicious lookalike domains quickly.
How is this different from phishing detection?+
Typosquatting detection focuses specifically on lookalike domains. Phishing detection is broader, covering impersonation pages and malicious URLs too. They work well together.
How quickly are new lookalike domains flagged?+
HookPhish detects typo, homoglyph and alternate-extension domains as they are registered and alerts you early — often before a spoof domain is weaponized for phishing or fraud.
Can it monitor several brands or domains at once?+
Yes. HookPhish can watch multiple domains and brands from one dashboard, so security and brand teams — and MSPs — can protect everything from a single view.
