ONESECURE Finds 151 Lookalike Domains per Organization, With 82% Showing Active Infrastructure

Summary
120,702 lookalike domains tied to 448 reference organization domains were identified in ONESECURE’s Singapore 2026 digital trust study, with a median 151 similar-looking domains linked to each organization.
82% of those domains showed observable internet or email infrastructure, indicating many external identities have the technical setup to establish an online presence even without evidence of malicious activity.
The report says that creates a trust gap because users judge legitimacy by familiar names, emails, websites and links rather than by what an organization actually owns or controls.
Financial services, healthcare, education, public services, transportation and information services all showed exposure, suggesting the issue extends beyond any single sector.
Although the dataset is Singapore-focused, ONESECURE says the broader challenge applies wherever people rely on digital identities to access services, transact and engage online.
With 82% of lookalike domains equipped for emails, how can businesses dismantle these hidden phishing traps before customers are scammed?
Since hackers exploit human perception rather than software flaws, what revolutionary UI changes can browsers implement to expose visually identical fake websites?
