As companies expand their digital presence, the risk of brand abuse grows at the same pace. Fake profiles, fraudulent websites, and unauthorized use of logos appear across platforms, damaging reputation, misleading customers, and creating openings for cyberattacks.
This guide outlines the key factors security, fraud, and marketing leaders should consider when selecting a brand protection solution that can handle complex operations.

A solution should identify brand abuse even when names are altered or hidden in images. This includes recognizing logos, design elements, and login behaviors.
Axur uses multimodal AI (vision + language) trained on more than 100 million labeled signals to detect threats that would bypass text-only systems.
The platform should automatically capture real screenshots, HTML code, HTTP headers, and hosting data. By emulating browsers, languages, and devices, it can expose frauds that only appear under specific conditions. This ensures solid documentation for legal notifications and takedown requests.
Key evaluation criteria:
With Axur, takedowns can be triggered with one click or fully automated based on risk rules. Actions start within seconds and repeat at no extra cost if needed.
Mature solutions handle large incident volumes without human bottlenecks.
In 2024, Axur executed more than 550,000 takedowns, with 86% fully automated end-to-end.

Axur monitors URLs/domains, malware, paid search/ads, social media, fake profiles, and app stores, in addition to other external sources. Our multimodal AI (vision + language) analyzes images, text, and page structure to detect fraud even without direct textual mentions of your brand. With a massive intake of 40+ million new sites per day, Axur spots fake login pages, typosquatting domains, misleading ads, fake profiles, and fraudulent apps — and prioritizes them for action.
Yes. The platform is designed to provide actionable signals within your ecosystem: customizable automation rules (by brand, country, or business line), ready-to-use evidence, and end-to-end takedown workflows that can be triggered automatically and fully audited. This makes it easy to send alerts, statuses, and evidence into SIEM/SOAR systems and standardize playbooks — particularly valuable for MSSP operations.
Delivered as a SaaS solution, Axur provides 24x7 continuous detection and automated response. Once brand scopes (names, domains, variations) are configured, the takedown workflows take over end-to-end: assessing whether threats are actionable, drafting and sending notifications, reading responses, interpreting outcomes, and escalating if needed — all with minimal human intervention. You start seeing value immediately, as rules go live with ready-to-act templates and first alerts sent in under 4 minutes after detection.
Axur’s AI engine understands visual context (logos, layouts, UI elements, and login behaviors) to identify real impersonation, not just “lookalikes.” This reduces noise and focuses your team only on actionable cases. The platform also captures automated forensic evidence — real screenshots, HTML, headers, and hosting data, emulated across devices, languages, and geolocations. This eliminates fragile manual triage and accelerates decision-making.
