Data‑driven
brand protection solutions
& online investigations

We deliver end-to-end online brand protection solutions designed to safeguard brand equity, revenue, and consumer trust. Our approach combines advanced technology, data intelligence, and specialist expertise to identify, prioritize, and neutralize IP threats, including counterfeits, lookalikes, and unauthorized trademark use.

Through continuous monitoring of online marketplaces, social media platforms, messaging environments, and independent e-commerce websites, we provide comprehensive visibility into how your brand is misused across the digital landscape. Our analysts validate infringements, compile legally robust evidence, and execute fast, platform-compliant takedown actions to remove illicit content efficiently. This includes issuing Notice-and-Takedown (NTD) and Cease-and-Desist (C&D) communications to platform operators and infringers, followed by escalation to hosting providers, domain registrars and law enforcement authorities where necessary.

Beyond removal, we leverage advanced analytics to map seller networks, identify repeat infringers, and uncover key nodes within counterfeit supply chains. This intelligence enables targeted, scalable enforcement strategies and supports the long-term disruption of illicit activity.

Where required, we collaborate closely with BRANDSFIELD Brand Care Law Firm to support coordinated offline legal actions, including targeting manufacturing sources, disrupting distribution networks, and engaging relevant authorities.

We provide intelligence-led trademark screening to assess availability risks before brand launch or registration. Combining advanced search technology with expert analysis, we identify potential conflicts across trademarks, company names, domains, and digital use.

In addition to pre-filing screening, we offer ongoing monitoring to detect newly filed or emerging marks — helping mitigate risks from look-alike producers and opportunistic IP filings. This proactive approach enables early action against potential conflicts and reduces exposure to disputes and enforcement pressure.

We conduct comprehensive open-source investigations and evidence gathering to identify and document IP infringers operating across online B2B and B2C markets — enabling seamless online-to-offline anticounterfeiting enforcement.

By combining large-scale data analysis, investigative expertise, and in-depth market knowledge, we systematically:

• monitor e-commerce and social media channels
• conduct test purchases for proper verification, and
• analyze and research collected data.

This approach allows us to detect active threats, uncover operational patterns, and map counterfeit networks. We verify infringers and associated parties, compiling legally robust, enforcement-ready evidence.

Our actionable intelligence empowers our partners to:

• launch targeted offline enforcement actions against counterfeit manufacturers, wholesalers, and repeat infringers
• collaborate effectively with customs authorities and law enforcement agencies
• strengthen risk profiling and compliance across multiple jurisdictions.

All our operations are conducted in full compliance with applicable data protection regulations, ensuring integrity and reliability in every investigation.

We provide a structured, data-driven view of how counterfeit, lookalike, and parallel import goods are presented and sold under your brand across leading e-commerce channels. Through systematic analysis of marketplaces, social commerce platforms, and independent websites, combined with robust evidence collection — including data capture, timestamped screenshots, and test purchases (online and offline) — we identify unauthorized sellers, detect and document infringing listings that can erode your brand’s value.

Our methodology combines advanced data collection with expert validation. We work directly with brand representatives and independent specialists to verify product authenticity and support findings with documented evidence, including expert opinions, laboratory analysis, and witness statements where required. This enables us to track infringement trends, map infringer footprints, uncover seller networks, and highlight high-risk activity with evidence suitable for enforcement and legal action.

You receive clear, actionable insights covering marketplace presence, seller behavior, infringement risks, and pricing dynamics, delivered through structured reports with prioritization and recommended next steps. This allows you to detect issues early, focus enforcement efforts effectively, and protect your revenue, brand reputation, and customer trust.

We offer flexible engagement models, including one-time in-depth surveys, ongoing monitoring, and tailored investigations aligned with your specific markets and risk profile.

We precisely monitor and analyze mentions of your brand across traditional media, LEA websites/court registers, social platforms, and digital communities — providing clear visibility into how your brand is perceived in real time.

By capturing and structuring brand mentions, we identify early signs of reputational risk, including negative sentiment and associations with terms such as “counterfeit,” “fake,” or “low-quality”. These signals often indicate emerging threats that can quickly impact consumer trust and brand value and may help you to understand how risks evolve over time, allowing you to proactively protect your brand and align response strategies across legal, marketing, and compliance teams.

Flexible delivery options include continuous monitoring, campaign-based tracking, and tailored reporting aligned with your key markets and risk profile.

We transform enforcement and OSINT-derived data into structured, actionable intelligence — providing a clear view of the illicit activity impacting your brand. By analyzing illicit products, known infringement cases, and newly identified intelligence across markets, platforms, and jurisdictions, we uncover patterns, connections, and high-risk targets.

BFDO compiles and maintains secure, comprehensive databases of legally available case data and intelligence, enabling continuous cross-checking of historical records against new targets. This allows us to identify repeat infringers, uncover linked networks, and monitor evolving infringement trends.

Combining advanced analytics with expert assessment, we map relationships between sellers, distribution channels, and supply chain nodes — supporting precise, scalable enforcement strategies. The resulting intelligence strengthens legal actions, enhances collaboration with authorities, and enables the proactive disruption of counterfeit operations.

Flexible delivery options include ongoing intelligence development, case-based analysis, and tailored reporting aligned with your enforcement priorities.
