Is your domain portfolio naughty or nice? A quick year-end check
A quick year-end domain security checklist
As online activity spikes toward the end of the year, we typically see an increase in domain-based phishing attempts. It’s a good time to take stock of your portfolio and make sure there are no easy entry points for bad actors.
Here’s a simple year-end checklist to help you stay ahead and keep your domain on the nice list:
- Review any unused or forgotten domains and decide whether to secure or retire them
- Check for look-alike TLDs still available for registration
- Confirm DNS records are current, accurate and intentional
- Verify redirects and legacy paths point to where they should
- Ensure WHOIS contact information is up to date
- Look for cloned landing pages using your brand or naming patterns
- Confirm registrar access and permissions are correct
- Review your defensive domain coverage for 2026
