Digital threats don’t just create risk. They redirect demand.
Counterfeiters, impersonators and fraudsters actively intercept customers as they search, browse and buy online. When protection is weak, demand that should flow through your authorized channels is captured elsewhere, often without your organization ever seeing the loss.
As digital channels multiply, threats appear simultaneously across marketplaces, social platforms, and websites, making it difficult to maintain a consistent view of risk or take effective action.
Many organizations still manage threats one channel at a time, relying on automated detection that prioritizes volume over accuracy.
The result is activity, not resolution.
The question isn’t whether threats exist. It’s whether you have the intelligence to protect and grow your business.

Crane Authentication’s Online Brand Protection & Intelligence service covers brand protection and fraud protection across digital channels, including the capability to ensure music licensing compliance through our Audio Check & Audit service.
Can I trust this?
Our Online Brand Protection and Intelligence service goes beyond detection, combining trusted heritage, expert-validated technology and accountable execution to follow threats through to resolution.
Connected from digital to physical
Crane Authentication brings decades of experience protecting physical and digital value across some of the world's most security-sensitive industries.
This heritage creates a link between what's genuine at the source with what's happening online, while also enabling protection at a product level. From security features that verify authentic goods, through to digital intelligence that monitors misuse across online channels, organizations gain a trusted reference point for identifying risk, protecting authorized channels and help customers distinguish genuine products from fakes with confidence.
Technology with human accountability
Our approach combines machine learning with expert analyst oversight to ensure threats are identified, categorized, and acted on accurately, with clear accountability for every enforcement decision.
AI enables scale across thousands of listings, channels, and regions. Analysts apply judgment where it matters: validating findings, reducing false positives, and ensuring enforcement actions are accurate, defensible, and built to hold.
From detection to real consequences
Most brand protection platforms stop at the takedown. We go further, supporting action beyond removal when threats persist or escalate. This capability is critical for organisations facing repeat offenders, organised networks or high‑impact risk.
From online monitoring and pricing intelligence that surfaces risk early, to test purchases that confirm real-world harm and investigative services that identify bad actors and support legal action.
When the situation demands it, we don't just remove the listing. We pursue the source.
Reporting that proves what matters
Data is only useful if it drives decisions. We deliver reporting aligned to your business priorities, risk exposure and commercial impact. Not just volume metrics and pretty dashboards, but the insight your team actually needs to understand risk, demonstrate impact, and communicate results to stakeholders.
From executive-level summaries to detailed data, reporting is structured to demonstrate progress and to support adaption of your brand protection strategy to your approach as threats evolve.
Your brand deserves more than detection.
We go further—combining expert analyst oversight, end-to-end capability and coordinated enforcement across digital channels.
