Antispam solutions: By assessing the reliability of a domain, cybersecurity professionals can help protect their organizations against spam and phishing attacks.
Security incident investigations: During a suspected incident, cybersecurity professionals can use Whois API to obtain detailed registration data about a domain, which can help them track down the source of the threat and take appropriate action.
