Answer:
Subdomains can often tell an important story about how the domain is intended to be used. They can signal things such as:
– TTPs. A subdomain such as “login.” or “secure.” suggests that a credential harvesting campaign may be in the works.
– Stage of development. The presence of non-default subdomains suggests that the controlling entity is staging the domain. Some common defaults you will see are “www.”, “webdisk.”, and “cpanel.”
– Connection patterns. A unique pattern of subdomains can be used as a search query in the pDNS panel of Iris Investigate to find other domains that may be under the same entity’s control.
Good to know: subdomains are populated on-demand when you click the Subdomains panel. They are not pre-loaded.
