CrowdStrike lookalike domains
Greyphish has recorded 296 domains that resemble CrowdStrike since March 2026, 7 of them in the last 90 days. Nearly all of them (90%) are typosquats, a keystroke or two away from the real name. .com carries 98% of them, out of 5 endings in all. 50 certificates for unregistered .ph, .com.ph names (registry wildcard) are excluded: the registry answers for any name under those endings, so nobody had to register one to get a certificate for it.

Where they are registered
For the 290 with a registrar in WHOIS (98% of all). Brand-protection registrars mostly hold defensive registrations made by brands themselves, so a domain there is more likely the brand's own than an imitation.
| Registrar | Lookalikes | Share | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| CSC | 285 | 98.3% | Brand protection |
| Dynadot | 1 | 0.3% | Retail |
| Go Montenegro Domains | 1 | 0.3% | Retail |
| GoDaddy | 1 | 0.3% | Retail |

Recent examples
The 10 most recent, written with [.] so they cannot be clicked. The brand's own domains and registrations held by brand-protection registrars are left out. A lookalike resembles CrowdStrike; it is not necessarily malicious, and none of these is a claim about who registered it or why.

More in security
Greyphish is not affiliated with CrowdStrike. Domains listed resemble CrowdStrike by spelling; registration alone says nothing about intent. Counts cover domains first seen in public Certificate Transparency logs and ICANN zone files; domains that Greyphish customers watch are excluded.
