🎉 Welcome to DangleDNS.io

We’re finally Live — and we couldn’t be more excited to share what we’ve been working on.
DangleDNS is our answer to a simple but often overlooked security issue: dangling DNS records.


🚨 Why We Built DangleDNS

As penetration testers, we constantly encounter forgotten or misconfigured DNS records during external attack surface assessments.
These dangling DNS records might seem harmless — until they’re weaponized. Attackers can hijack them to impersonate your brand, steal credentials, or host phishing sites that look completely legitimate.

The frustrating part? These risks are easy to detect and prevent — if you have the right visibility.
So we decided to automate the process.

DangleDNS continuously monitors your domains, detects dangling DNS records, and notifies you before attackers can exploit them.
What started as an internal security automation became a fully automated, affordable DNS monitoring solution for anyone who manages domains.


💡 Our Mission

Our goal is simple: Eradicate subdomain takeover attacks.

We believe DNS cleanup should be an effortless part of every decommissioning process.
In reality, people forget. Services get retired, records remain, and teams move on.
Manual checks are tedious and expensive — but automation can make DNS hygiene simple, reliable, and continuous.

DangleDNS helps organizations of any size maintain a clean DNS footprint and reduce attack surface — automatically.


🗺️ What’s Next on Our Roadmap

We’ve started with a clear focus: detecting and preventing dangling DNS records.

Here’s what’s coming next as we expand the platform:

  • 🔗 Integrations — Connect DangleDNS alerts to your existing systems (Slack, Teams, etc.)
  • 📜 Audit History — Understand when and how risks appeared, and what changed since
  • 🌐 Domain Management — Seamlessly monitor and organize hundreds of domains

Our priority is to make DNS monitoring seamless for security teams and system administrators everywhere.
