  • Patent number: 10178121
    Abstract: A system for the identification and subsequent rating of domains based on a result derived from a proprietary algorithm configured to detect when a new domain is registered, correlate the domain to registrant data, cross-check the data based on domain proximity to known-malignity, and output a proximity score employed to convey the potential for malicious content or intentions available or to be served as content accessible via the domain. The system is equipped with a dynamic domain database configured to provide near-real-time domain registration data across all domain extensions, facilitating the detection and scoring of new domains as soon as practicable after their inception. Domains are routinely re-evaluated for score consistency, helping to better maintain the security of visitors to websites hosted, or automated connections to infrastructure present on the domain.
