ATTACK SURFACE · SUBDOMAIN TAKEOVER

Find takeover-vulnerable subdomains before attackers claim them.

Every unclaimed CNAME is an open door. We continuously fingerprint your DNS, cross-reference cloud service ownership, and flag dangling records the moment they appear.

When abandoned resources become open doors

When a subdomain points at a cloud resource (S3 bucket, Heroku app, GitHub Pages, Azure service) that no longer exists, an attacker can register the resource and inherit the subdomain. They then host malware, run phishing, or steal cookies scoped to your domain. Standard monitoring misses this because the DNS record still resolves.

DETECTION FLOW

How Subdomain Takeover Detection Works

01

DISCOVERY

We enumerate your DNS zones and passive-DNS history to build a live map of every subdomain, including ones your ops team forgot about.

02

FINGERPRINT

Each record is checked against 40+ cloud-provider takeover signatures — S3, GitHub, Fastly, Heroku, Netlify, Vercel, Azure, and more.

03

ALERT

Vulnerable records surface in your dashboard with the exact provider, evidence, and remediation instructions.

CAPABILITIES

Key Features & Core Architecture

40+ takeover signatures

Cloud-provider-specific fingerprints covering AWS, Azure, GCP, GitHub, Netlify, Vercel, Fastly, Heroku, and more.

Continuous scanning

Every subdomain re-verified daily. New dangling records surface within minutes.

Passive DNS history

Catches shadow-IT domains that never made it into your primary zone file.

Evidence trail

Screenshots and raw HTTP responses attached to every finding for audit.

One-click ticketing

Push findings into Jira, ServiceNow, or a custom webhook.
