Netcraft

Netcraft is a global cybersecurity company founded in 1995 that protects large organisations from phishing, fraud and digital attacks. Its central product is an automated phishing takedown platform which detects and removes phishing sites within minutes rather than days, disrupting live attacks rather than merely identifying them. The company has been exploring the internet since 1995 and processes over 23 billion datapoints annually.

The scale of that operation is substantial. Netcraft handles nearly a third of all phishing takedowns worldwide, and its customers include 3 of the 4 largest companies globally and 12 of the 50 biggest banks, alongside governments and other large enterprises. Technical work spans cybersecurity, phishing detection and takedown, fraud prevention, threat intelligence, automated threat disruption and large-scale data processing.

The company operates globally with a distributed team and describes a mission-driven culture focused on fighting cybercrime. Because criminal tactics evolve continuously, much of the work involves adversarial, changing problems; the stated emphasis is on disruption and action over passive detection. Marketing engineers working in such an environment would encounter products built around automated detection, large-scale data and high-profile clients in financial services, government and enterprise markets.
