Fortra Brand Protection is a digital risk protection and brand defense platform built to help businesses find and eliminate fraud, impersonation, phishing, and online abuse before they damage customers or reputation. The software continuously monitors web, social media, mobile app stores, domains, and the dark web for threats that misuse a company’s brand, trademarks, domains, or customer trust. It helps security teams identify fake accounts, phishing sites, typosquatting domains, counterfeit listings, exposed credentials, data leaks, unauthorized sellers, and fraudulent apps. Fortra combines automated detection, expert intelligence, actionable alerts, and rapid takedown workflows so teams can move quickly from insight to enforcement. Its phishing protection tools help detect and shut down malicious websites and impersonating domains early in the attack lifecycle. Social media protection capabilities monitor platforms for scams, fake profiles, and brand abuse, while counterfeit protection helps remove fraudulent listings and unauthorized digital storefronts. Dark web monitoring gives organizations visibility into leaked credentials, exposed data, and emerging threats that may affect employees, customers, or business operations. Domain monitoring tracks lookalike domains and other abuse patterns that can be used for fraud, phishing, or brand impersonation. Fortra Brand Protection gives organizations a centralized way to protect customer trust, reduce digital fraud, and defend their brand across the public internet and hidden threat channels.
