Why Scammers Use Newly Registered Domains (and How to Block Them)

Scammers running flash cryptocurrency schemes and fraud campaigns register hundreds of new domains weekly, using them for just a few hours to push spam before security databases can index them.

Proactive Blocking of Zero-Day Domains

Waiting for a static blacklist to index a domain created hours ago is ineffective. AdBlock Network implements dynamic domain age filters. The extension performs asynchronous read-only requests to multiple independent endpoints to refresh the firewall, using the Address layer to deny connections to newly registered domains.
