Move Beyond the Takedown
Netcraft helps take threats down. Fortra Brand Protection goes further, cutting through threat noise, accelerating mitigation, and delivering expert intelligence that reveals how attackers target your brand.
Before using Fortra, my team was constantly battling counterfeit listings on Amazon and dealing with fake social media accounts that impersonated our brand. This issue consumed countless hours and eroded customer trust. With the platform, suspicious activity is automatically flagged across more than 50 channels, and we receive actionable alerts rather than just unnecessary notifications. This helped us avoid at least three significant PR crises, and we managed to recover over $200,000 in lost revenue from fraudulent sellers.

Why Fortra Is the Better Choice for Brand Protection
Brand protection should do more than detect and remove individual threats. While Netcraft focuses on highly automated detection and disruption at scale, Fortra combines automation with expert-led intelligence that helps security teams prioritize credible threats, understand the activity behind them, and use those insights to strengthen their broader defenses.
Netcraft Automates Alerts. Fortra Delivers Expert-Curated Threat Intelligence.
Netcraft uses extensive automation to detect, classify, disrupt, and remove threats, with manual intervention focused on edge cases, high-risk blocks, and improving its automated classification.
Fortra combines automated analysis and risk scoring with expert human vetting to deliver prioritized, actionable intelligence. This approach helps reduce noise, surface credible threats, and give security teams the context they need to respond confidently.
Netcraft Disrupts Digital Threats. Fortra Connects Them to Broader Risk.
Both providers monitor threats across digital channels, including websites, social media, mobile apps, and the deep and dark web. Netcraft focuses on automated detection and rapid disruption, while Fortra combines broad monitoring with expert-curated intelligence that helps teams evaluate threats in the context of their organization.
Fortra detects impersonation, exposed credentials, data leaks, account compromise, social media threats, and other external risks. By collecting and curating intelligence across the surface, deep, and dark web, social media, mobile app stores, and third-party feeds, Fortra gives security teams greater context into the threats targeting their business.
Netcraft Focuses on Rapid Disruption. Fortra Turns Intelligence into Strategic Action.
