openSquat is an opensource Intelligence (OSINT) R&D project to identify cybersquatting threats to specific companies or domains, such as:

  • Domain squatting
  • Typosquatting
  • IDN homograph attacks
  • Phishing
  • Scams

It does support some key features such as:

  • Automatic newly registered domain updating (once a day)
  • Levenshtein distance to calculate word similarity
  • IDN homograph attack detection
  • Use different levels of confidence threshold to fine-tune
  • Save output into different formats (txt, JSON, and CSV)
  • Can be integrated with other threat intelligence tools and DNS sinkholes

Changelog v2.1
