Could you build this?
No Defending against website spoofing and certificate issuance vulnerabilities relies on cutting-edge academic network security research, BGP routing analysis, and global distributed vantage-point probing.
What it would actually take: The platform requires deploying a globally distributed sensor network across multi-cloud and multi-AS network nodes to perform Multi-Perspective Issuance Corroboration (MPIC) and monitor global BGP route hijacking. It involves real-time inspection of Certificate Transparency (CT) logs, active TLS handshake probing from diverse network viewpoints, and high-throughput network telemetry pipelines. Building this requires deep doctoral-level expertise in Internet routing protocols (BGP, DNS, PKI) and low-level network security.
