  title: Cisco Umbrella Investigate Security Information for a Domain API
  description: 'The Umbrella Investigate API provides a complete view of domains in relation to IP and autonomous system number (ASN) information.

    You can get the following domain information:


    * 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'
