We keep watch for the silent changes an expiry reminder will never flag — copycat domains, tampered DNS, lapsing certificates, and ownership moved out from under you.
A record is edited. A certificate lapses without a word. Someone registers an address a single character away from yours and begins sending mail in your name. Nothing sounds an alarm — it simply waits, until a customer or your bank spots it before you ever do.
Year on year, more of Africa's business moves through domains and email — and the fraud follows it. IPDS Africa adds a steady layer of oversight across the exposures that registration and renewal were never designed to see.
We scan for newly registered domains built to pass as yours — misspellings, switched letters, and different endings — so an impersonation attempt is caught before it ever lands in a customer's inbox.
Edit any A, MX, NS, or TXT record and an alert goes out at once. Should your domain ever be rerouted or seized, you'll hear about it in minutes rather than weeks.
We keep an eye on ownership and registrar records, so no transfer can slip through without your knowledge.
Early notice before a certificate lapses, and an immediate flag if one is ever replaced without your say-so.
We measure your domain against the major spam and security blacklists, so a listing never sits unseen and quietly eats away at your deliverability or reputation.
We watch your SPF, DKIM, and DMARC setup — the records that decide whether anyone else can send mail dressed up to look like it came from your domain.
A complete sweep of your domain across all six watchpoints, setting the baseline we measure against.
Where everything stands at a glance, with real-time alerts in between whenever something can't wait.
Spelled out in plain words with clear next steps — never a wall of raw data for you to decode.
Guarding one business domain or overseeing brand assets across several African markets, IPDS Africa scales to fit — nothing complicated to set up, no extra accounts to keep track of.
