As a Supplement to my other Project: https://github.com/PAST2212/domainthreat
Using CERT Transparency Logs via https://certstream.calidog.io/ API to monitor phishing domains or brand impersonations. This is interesting to find newly domain registrations that are not published on a daily base by domain authorities (e.g. DENIC does not publish domains with .de TLD - ICANN does publish .com domains).
You can recognize:
- full-word matching (e.g. amazon-shop.com),
- regular typo squatting cases (e.g. ammazon.com),
- typical look-alikes / phishing / so called CEO-Fraud domains (e.g. arnazon.com (rn = m),
- IDN Detection / look-alike Domains based on full word matching (e.g. 𝗉ay𝞀al.com - greek letter RHO '𝞀' instead of latin letter 'p'),
Features:
- False Positive Reduction Instruments (e.g. self defined Blacklists, Thresholds depending on string lenght)
- IDN / Homoglyph Detection
- CSV Export
- Find domains and Subdomains that are identical or confusingly similar to your name/brand/mailing domain name/etc
- Mix of Edit-based and Token-based textdistance algorithms to increase result quality by considering degree of freedom in choosing variations of domain names from attacker side
- Domain Registrar and Domain Creation Date WHOIS are included.
- Possibility to change pre-defined thresholds of fuzzy-matching algorithms if you want to

How to install:
- git clone https://github.com/PAST2212/certthreat.git
- cd certthreat
- pip install -r requirements.txt
How to run:
- python3 certthreat.py
Example Screenshot real-time request CERT Logs
How it Works:
-
Put your brand names or mailing domain names into this TXT file "userdata/keywords.txt" line per line for monitoring operations (without the TLD). Some "TUI" Names are listed per default.
-
Put common word collisions into this TXT file "userdata/blacklist_keywords.txt" line per line you want to exclude from the results to reduce false positives.
- e.g. blacklist "lotto" if you monitor keyword "otto", e.g. blacklist "amazonas" if you want to monitor "amazon", ...
