Product News and Use Cases
We aim to be the biggest treasure trove of security data available. And if we want you to rely on us, it’s important to keep you informed on our quest for the perfect solution.
Transparency about our data is a top priority — including what we’re doing with it and any quirks we find along the way. This is why we keep a regularly updated Changelog where you can see everything our engineers bring forth: product updates, launches, bug fixes. We also keep everything fresh on the blog in our News category, where each month we highlight all of those updates and changes to keep you fully informed about all of our products.
You’ll find writeups from our team retreats and gatherings in our News section as well, including the first marketing and product meetup in Las Vegas during our early days, the meetup in Budapest, and one of the most recent events in Bali. All company-wide updates such as the SecurityTrails data bounty program, updates to our domain discovery pipeline and announcements of all of our new integrations and wrappers can be found in this category.

Iran, the IRGC and Fake News Websites
Recently, the Department of Justice made two public announcements about shutting down fake news websites created by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

Introducing the SecurityTrails API™ PHP Wrapper
An API can be accessed in different ways, via your browser or your command line, but the easiest way is by using an API wrapper. While API access points may change over time, using an API wrapper will ensure the way you call the API always remains the same in your code.

Introducing Regex (RLIKE) Support for Hostnames in SQL Explorer
