    * Domain status, risk score, and geolocation

    * Number of domain searches

    * Co-occurring domains

    * Subdomains of a domain

    * Tagged timeline of a domain, IP, or URL

    * Security reputation of a domain

    * Top accessed domains

    * WHOIS information for the domain

    * Threat intelligence data for domains, IPs, and URLs

    * Threat intelligence samples by file hash'

      description: 'List the most seen domains in Umbrella. You can download the data in a zip file,

        or use the Investigate API to stream the data into a SIEM.

        The popularity list contains our most queried domains based on passive DNS usage across

        our Umbrella global network of more than 180 billion requests per day with many tens of millions

        of unique active users, in more than 165 countries.

        The metric does not only consist of browser-based http requests from users but also takes

        in to account the number of unique client IPs invoking this domain relative to the sum of all requests

        to all domains.

        Our popularity ranking reflects the domain''s relative internet activity agnostic

        to the invocation protocols and applications where as site ranking models (such as Alexa) focus

        on the web activity over port 80 (primarily from browsers).

        In addition, the Umbrella popularity algorithm also applies data normalization techniques

        to smooth potential biases that may occur due to sampling of DNS usage data.
