Malware Activity: Domain Registrars
Quarter over Quarter Comparison
July 1, 2021 - September 30, 2021

For purposes of observing change over time, it is useful to compare measurements and metrics over successive reporting periods.

In the table below, we compare the number of reported malware domains under management at domain registrars for the two consecutive quarters.
