Citizen Hawk is an online brand management solutions provider that helps companies protect their online brands by targeting cybersquatters. Citizen Hawk continually monitors the web to expose the typosquatters and cyberscammers affecting their clients' business. They shutdown and recover these fraudulent domains for their clients.[1]

The process of identifying cybersquatters and filing UDRP are completely automated at Citizen Hawk. This generic filing of UDRP has created some problems for the company in the past. There were cases of carelessness and errors in the filings which has costed their clients dearly. [2] [3]
