Patent ID: 8285830

Claim:
A computer-implemented method for combating cybersquatting, comprising: providing a webpage for a user to submit a trademark to be monitored for potential typosquatting; receiving the submitted trademark; generating a list of typo domains for the submitted trademark; collecting data associated with the typo domains; traversing HTTP links from respective typo domains until a respective final destination domain associated with the typo domains is reached; determining a monetization ID for the respective typo domains by analyzing the traversed HTTP requests; grouping the typo domains based at least in part on predetermined criteria for inclusion in a document submission, wherein the predetermined criteria comprises the monetization ID associated with the typo domains; programmatically preparing a document for the document submission, wherein the document includes the grouped domains with their associated collected data; programmatically providing a graphical user interface for automatically populating the document submission with additional information based at least on one or more inputs received from a second user, wherein the additional information comprises at least one of (a) a document attachment providing evidence supporting cybersquatting of the submitted trademark and (b) a legal argument supporting cybersquatting of the trademark; receiving the one or more inputs from the second user; and automatically populating the document submission with the additional information for submission to an administrative body; wherein the method is performed by a computing system comprising one or more computing devices.
