Dangling-DNS Hijack Report: october-2026.
3 parked domains flagged of 4 checked
parked-domain checks run this month
flagged with hijack signals
The hijack needs no password and no exploit: a domain keeps pointing at an IP someone released, a stranger rents the address, and your name serves their content. We found 56 of our own 2,444 domains exactly this way — owners unaware, monetized by third parties, invisible for months.
The fix is a watch, not a cleanup: registry state, dangling records, and content checks on every idle domain, continuously. Nobody emails you when a delegation breaks — that silence is the whole attack surface.

Method & limits
Scope: this ledger is the retail edge (seosink.com's own protection surface) plus every free check run. Estate-wide attack telemetry merges into these reports in a later release — the numbers here are exact for what they measure, and they are a floor, not a ceiling.
Detail that would teach the attacking farm what we can see — fingerprints, source IPs, target properties — is aggregated or held back 30 days. Counts are always exact.
