What Is Digital Risk Protection?

Digital risk protection (DRP) finds and removes threats to your brand, customers and executives outside your own network. It watches the open, deep and dark web for fake domains, apps and profiles, leaked data and fraud. Brandefense Digital Risk Protection also helps get what it finds taken down.

Which One When

Three Pillars. One Question Each.

DRP, EASM and threat intelligence overlap, but each answers a different question.

This pageDigital Risk Protection (DRPS)Who is using your name? Finds fake domains, apps, profiles and ads, and leaked data, then helps remove them.You are here
PillarExternal Attack Surface Management (EASM)What of yours is exposed? Finds internet-facing assets, shadow IT and misconfigurations you may not know about.See EASM PillarCyber Threat Intelligence (CTI)Who is coming for you, and how? Tracks threat actors, ransomware groups, vulnerabilities and attacker methods.See threat intelligence

All three run on one platform, so you can start with the question that matters most and add the others later.

The Reality

The Digital Risk. Reality.

Today's external threats extend far beyond infrastructure vulnerabilities. Monitoring alone is not enough — predictive digital risk intelligence is required.

Updated 28 Sep 2026

  • What is Digital Risk Protection?

    Digital Risk Protection is a security discipline focused on monitoring and protecting an organization’s digital presence across the surface web, deep web, and dark web. Brandefense Digital Risk Protection detects brand abuse, phishing campaigns, data leaks, fraud, and executive impersonation — and provides the tools to respond rapidly.

  • How does Brandefense detect phishing sites targeting my brand?

    Brandefense monitors domain registrations, DNS changes, and web infrastructure in real time. When a lookalike or typosquatted domain appears, the platform flags it instantly, enriches it with threat context, and initiates takedown through global domain registrar partnerships.

  • What dark web sources does Brandefense monitor?

    Brandefense covers a broad range of dark web sources including forums, marketplaces, paste sites, private Telegram channels, and threat actor communities — scanning for leaked credentials, sensitive data, and discussions targeting your organization.

  • How quickly can Brandefense take down a phishing site?

    Takedown time depends on the platform or registrar that hosts the content. Brandefense prepares the evidence, submits the request and follows it up until the content is removed.

  • Can Brandefense protect executives and VIPs from digital threats?

    Yes. Brandefense monitors for impersonation of executives and key personnel across social media platforms, the dark web, and email vectors — detecting fake profiles, account takeover attempts, and targeted phishing campaigns before they succeed.

  • Which channels does Brandefense Digital Risk Protection monitor?

    It monitors domains and websites, social media, paid ads, fraud markets, and the dark and deep web. Each channel has its own takedown path, such as registrars and hosting providers for domains, or the platform itself for social media.

  • How does a takedown work, step by step?

    The domain is detected, the page is captured, and AI confirms it is phishing and records the evidence, and analysts verify critical cases. The evidence pack goes to the registrar and hosting provider. After the page is offline, the domain stays on watch in case it returns.

  • Can Brandefense find fake mobile apps that copy my brand?

    Yes. Fake mobile apps are one of the digital risks it covers. These are counterfeit applications that impersonate your brand to steal data or spread malware.

  • How fast is the takedown response?

    The platform page lists a 24-hour takedown response.

  • Who uses Brandefense Digital Risk Protection?

    It is built for CISOs, SOC teams, threat intel analysts, government units, MSSPs and national CERTs. Financial institutions and critical infrastructure operators also use it. Fraud, brand and marketing teams are named as roles it serves.

  • What is the difference between digital risk protection and brand protection?

    Brand protection is one part of digital risk protection. It covers fake domains, profiles, apps and ads that copy your name. Digital risk protection adds leaked data, executive exposure and fraud, so it looks at more than the brand.

  • How is digital risk protection different from EASM and threat intelligence?

    Digital risk protection looks for outside threats that use your name or data. External attack surface management finds your own exposed assets. Threat intelligence tracks the attackers and their methods. Brandefense runs all three on one platform.

  • What should a digital risk protection service include?

    At least detection across domains, social media, app stores, ads and the dark web, evidence for every case, and takedown. Brandefense contacts registrars and hosts itself, and you can also export the evidence to pursue a case on your own.

  • How is Brandefense Digital Risk Protection licensed?

    By the modules you use and the number of assets you cover. The site lists no price figures. A demo of about 30 to 45 minutes with Sales and Presales shows which modules fit your brand.
