Abstract

The present invention, in one set of embodiments, provides methods, systems and software that may be used to generate and manage enforcement actions against domains that are potentially and/or actually infringing rights of a user.

According to further embodiments, methods are provided for obtaining domain information regarding potential and/or actual infringing domains for a user. In certain embodiments, the present invention provides methods for analyzing domain information concerning potential and/or actual infringing domains and generating one or more enforcement messages for sending to one or more parties associated with the potentially and/or actually infringing domain names.
