WILMINGTON, DE — CSC has made its .BRAND domain services available through the CrowdStrike Marketplace, expanding access to tools designed to help large organizations manage domain security and prepare for the current application window for new generic top-level domains.
The move integrates CSC’s .BRAND advisory and management services with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform as organizations face increasing cybersecurity risks tied to domain name systems, digital assets, and artificial intelligence-driven online activity.
The announcement comes as the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) accepts applications for new top-level domains through Aug. 12, 2026, creating an opportunity for companies to secure branded internet domains as part of broader cybersecurity and digital identity strategies.
CSC said organizations using .BRAND top-level domains can centralize control of their domain infrastructure, establish authenticated first-party digital assets, and reduce exposure to fraudulent or lookalike domain registrations.
“Organizations can gain greater control over domain security with .BRAND top-level domains, strengthening trust, authenticity, and compliance in the AI era,” Ihab Shraim, chief technology officer of CSC’s Digital Brand Services division, said.
The company manages more than one-third of existing .BRAND domains and has supported organizations through previous ICANN application rounds, according to CSC.
CrowdStrike executives framed the partnership as an effort to address domain-related security risks that can be exploited by threat actors.
“Bringing CSC’s .BRAND services into the CrowdStrike Marketplace helps customers address an often-overlooked layer of the attack surface—domain security,” Chris Stewart, vice president of technology alliances and cloud at CrowdStrike, said.
The expanded integration builds on an existing relationship between the two companies and reflects growing enterprise focus on domain governance, authentication, and brand protection as cybersecurity threats continue to evolve.
