Abstract
The present application provides a system for detecting brand squatting domains with a three-stage detection pipeline having three different classifiers. The provided system helps predict whether an unknown domain will be malicious. The first classifier detects abusive brand squatting domains, such as those that impersonate exact popular brand names, as soon as the domains are registered. The second classifier detects abusive brand squatting domains when hosting information becomes available, in combination with the information available for the first classifier. The third classifier detects abusive brand squatting domains when certificate information associated with domains is available, in combination with the information available for the first and second classifiers. The performance of each classifier improves from the first to the second to the third with the first classifier making determinations with the least information and the third classifier making determinations with the most information.
