A report published by the Interisle Consulting Group recommends incorporating domain security into enterprise risk management, and for organizations to use enterprise-class registrars that understand “the needs of customers who place a high value on their domain names [and] consider their domain names and online presence to be business-critical.”
CSC has been a key strategic partner for us in our brand management and property security initiatives. Our CSC Account Team is the most responsive of all of our major vendors. Their focus on understanding our unique requirements is truly valued. Their success in engaging with international authorities on our behalf has been critical in our ability to maintain a consistent and reliable international internet presence.
”Every minute an eCommerce site is unable to process transactions—or the days an organization is unable to operate as their systems are held at ransom—equates to costly revenue loss and reputation damage that organizations cannot afford. Yet cyber threats continue to occur at increasing frequency, even among large enterprises and governments.
An overwhelming majority of companies are reportedly taking a huge risk by using consumer-grade registrars that are characterized by volume sales and commodity pricing with “little margin for them to implement costly security measures.” Some of these consumer-grade registrars even display indicators of criminality, offering bulk registration services, name generation tools, little validation of registrant identity, and have persistently high concentrations of spam domains under management.

I’ve been using CSC’s Domain and Brand Monitoring service for almost a year now, and it has been a game-changer for us in monitoring our domains and brands beyond our direct control. When paired with CSC’s Enforcement services, it provides a comprehensive MDR solution for the domains and brands we own. The CSC team is incredibly responsive and has been instrumental in helping us set up the service and providing ongoing support. Their expertise ensures that we’re always notified about potential brand abuse, sometimes even at the domain registration phase. The service is reliable, efficient, and worth every penny. Given the multitude of threats that modern businesses face, I highly recommend CSC to any company looking to protect their online presence and maintain their brand reputation.
