ViewDNS.info has launched Monitors, a service that alerts teams when DNS records, WHOIS details, subdomains, look-alike domains or registrant activity change, the company said in a PRLog announcement published on November 11, 2026. The free plan includes three monitors of any type, checked daily.
How ViewDNS Monitors Watches Domain Changes
Every monitor can send alerts by email, webhook or Slack, according to ViewDNS.info. The company said alerts can go to a security inbox, a SIEM or SOAR pipeline, or a team channel, and each alert links to a full change history in the ViewDNS dashboard.
ViewDNS.info lists five monitor types. The service is built for security operations, threat intelligence, brand protection and attack surface management teams, as well as IT administrators responsible for domains and DNS.
Michael Hughes, Director of ViewDNS.info, said: "Most domain threats announce themselves before they strike, through a new registration, a DNS change or a fresh subdomain." He added: "Monitors makes sure our users see those signals first."
Paid plans offer 20, 50 or 100 monitors and unlock hourly, 15-minute, 5-minute and real-time checking, depending on monitor type, at no additional charge, the company said. ViewDNS Monitors is available now, and the company directs users to viewdns.info for details.
