Netcraft's strengths
By their own account, Netcraft handles roughly a third of the world's phishing takedowns. They report 220 million+ cybercrime attacks blocked and 25 million+ attacks taken down, and push blocklist countermeasures within minutes of detection. The company has been at this since 1995, with registrar and hosting relationships built over three decades, and 16 of the 50 largest banks in the world trust them with exactly this job.
For a bank facing thousands of phishing URLs a month, Netcraft's automation is built for that volume.
Where Netcraft doesn't fit, and why companies look for alternatives
-
Bank-scale volume vs. a handful of incidents a year. Netcraft's pipeline is optimized for institutions feeding it phishing URLs at scale. A Mittelstand company with three incidents a year gets industrial machinery sized for a different customer.
-
Quote-only pricing. There's no public price list, and the billing model isn't published. When your cost depends on a quote you can't compare, budgeting a single incident means a sales process first.
-
Built around phishing URLs and domains. Netcraft's core machine is URL and domain disruption at volume. Impersonation rarely stays in one channel: fake social profiles, fake shops and fraudulent ads are part of the same attack. nebty treats those as core scope, not an add-on.
Pricing: a flat fee you can budget
Netcraft's pricing is quote-only (as of July 2026). The billing model isn't published either, so the total for your situation only emerges from their sales process.
At nebty, monitoring and takedowns are two separate services, bookable individually or together. Monitoring is a subscription: €99/$119 per month per brand, cancellable monthly, no setup fee. Takedowns are ordered per case, with or without a subscription: €400/$450 per successful takedown, €300/$340 as a monitoring customer. No success, no fee, plus the stays-offline guarantee. Full details on one public page. You know the cost of an incident before it happens.
The process
How nebty works
Monitoring (a subscription) and takedowns (per case) are two independent services, bookable separately or together. Combined, they interlock like this:
- 01
We monitor 24/7.
Lookalike domains, phishing clones, fake shops and fake profiles targeting your brand. Detection typically within hours of going live.
- 02
You confirm, we act.
Send us the URL, or click once in the dashboard. We handle registrar, host and blocklist escalation, fully managed, in English or German.
- 03
You pay on success.
€400/$450 per takedown, only when the content is down. Free re-takedown if it returns.
