Abstract

Detection of squatting domains is disclosed. A set of new fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) is received. The set of new FQDNs is analyzed to detect domain squatting by identifying a subset of the new FQDNs as candidate squatting domains. The candidate squatting domains are distributed to a security device/service.
