SecurityTrails is a privately held American company with its headquarters in Los Angeles, California[1] that specializes in gathering and providing other companies with domain name, IP address and WHOIS related data. Part of the data is provided for free on a web based platform for research and investigations, which operates under the company's name, SecurityTrails. Besides the free platform, they are providing the domain, IP and WHOIS data via a paid API.
Founded in 2017 by Christopher Ueland, formerly the CEO for MaxCDN[2] with the stated mission of providing the biggest treasure-trove of cyber intelligence data.[3]
Historical data
SecurityTrails holds historical DNS and WHOIS data from before the company was founded, some domains WHOIS data dating back to 2012[4] and DNS history data even further back to 2008[5].
List of all top-level domains
The company also acquired a platform called "wwws.io" that was later rebranded to "domainlists.io"[6] and sells zone files of all major Top-Level-Domains, even though some of them do not publicly release their zone files. Zone files for Russian TLDs were added after a leak in the registrars nameserver configuration.[7]
Real-time domain relations
The web based platform offers ways to search WHOIS information across any domain that has been publicly registered on the internet, meaning that anyone could find any domain a single person or company registered[8]. This raises privacy concerns regarding registrars offering WHOIS data on public APIs.
