ClHostMap: A tool to check if your website has been impersonated. (Version 1.1.3)
What is ClHostMap?
ClHostMap (standing for Cloud Host Map) is a tool that checks many cloud providers, and many TLDs for whether your website has been registered by other people.
Why use ClHostMap?
People often impersonate brands or companies by hosting it on a different TLD like .net instead of .com, or hosting a website with the same brand name but using a cloud hosting platform so that it is free, like using .vercel.app or .pages.dev because .com is registered.
Additionally, if your original company is hosted on a cloud provider for free instead of .com, other people can register a domain on .com and impersonate you.
ClHostMap allows you to input your brand name, and the tool automatically checks many TLDs and host providers. Check the features for more details.
Features
Features of ClHostMap include:
- Using a hash to check every TLD and host provider, as some host providers return a 200 OK response code but on the frontend say it is fake. This ensures no false positives will be captured.
- 68 cloud host providers (like
.vercel.app) and every TLD from IANA. (literally every TLD to ever exist) - Asynchronous function so that it runs hundreds of checks all at once.
