ABOUT EZLASCAN

We Built the Platform
Pirates Fear Most.

EzlaScan was founded by a team of cybersecurity engineers and intellectual property specialists with a singular mission: make piracy unprofitable. Today we protect hundreds of rights-holders across film, music, software, publishing, and financial services — from our headquarters in Dubai.

▸ OUR STORY

Built From Frustration.
Sharpened by Scale.

In 2020, EzlaScan's founders Ariel Navon and Lior Ben-David were watching the same problem play out across every major content company they worked with: enforcement was reactive, manual, and almost always too late. Pirates moved faster than legal teams could file notices, and the few automated tools on the market were generating as many false positives as real takedowns.

The solution wasn't another notice-filing tool — it was a detection and enforcement infrastructure built to operate at machine speed, with evidence quality fit for court and intelligence depth that actually outpaces pirate behaviour.

EzlaScan launched its first detection engine in Q1 2021 across 40 platforms. Within 18 months, that number had grown to over 200, and the company had executed its first million takedowns. Today the platform covers 340+ platforms, processes millions of content signals daily, and serves over 200 rights-holders across 30 countries.

We are headquartered in Dubai Internet City — a strategic base that connects our operations across the MENA region, Europe, and Asia — while maintaining enforcement reach that covers every jurisdiction where infringing content appears.

▸ OUR MISSION

Make Infringement
Impossible to Sustain.

Digital piracy costs the global creative economy an estimated $71 billion annually. Most solutions chase takedowns after the fact — playing whack-a-mole while pirates move infrastructure, rebrand, and re-upload within hours. We built EzlaScan to close that gap permanently.

Our platform detects infringement at the moment it emerges, enforces automatically at scale across every platform and jurisdiction, and learns with every case — making it progressively harder, more expensive, and more legally risky for bad actors to operate.

When piracy stops being profitable — when every copy is removed faster than it earns revenue — the incentive disappears. That's the endpoint we're building toward.

Precision Over Volume
Every takedown notice we send is backed by verified evidence. We never fire blind — no false positives, no collateral damage to legitimate content.
Always-On Coverage
Our systems operate 24/7 across every time zone. When infringers sleep, we don't. Threat intelligence is live, continuous, and global.
Transparent Reporting
Clients see exactly what we found, what we removed, and what's still in progress — in real time through the dashboard, not a monthly PDF.
Relentless Improvement
Our detection models learn from every scan. Every evasion attempt teaches the system something new. The platform is measurably better every week.
▸ WHO WE PROTECT

Six Industries. One Platform.

EzlaScan is purpose-built for industries where content theft, brand impersonation, and fraud cause measurable, direct financial harm.

Film & Streaming
Protect theatrical releases, SVOD catalogues, and live stream events from piracy on torrents, cyberlockers, and illegal streaming sites.
Music & Audio
Label and artist protection across SoundCloud, YouTube, TikTok, and Telegram. Enforce sync licensing and track unauthorized use of stems and masters.
Software & SaaS
License enforcement, crack site monitoring, and pirated installer takedowns. Protect your subscription business from credential sharing and unauthorized redistribution.
Publishing & Education
Remove leaked e-books, unauthorized course recordings, and academic content from file-sharing platforms, Telegram groups, and dark web marketplaces.
Finance & Crypto
Take down impersonation domains, fraudulent investment platforms, crypto giveaway scams, and fake exchange clones before they reach your customers.
Brand & Retail
Combat counterfeit listings on Amazon, AliExpress, and social commerce. Remove unauthorized trademark use, clone storefronts, and fake brand accounts.
▸ HOW IT WORKS

Built for Machine Speed.

DETECT
Our AI fingerprinting engine continuously scans 340+ platforms using perceptual hashing, metadata matching, and optical character recognition. Content is identified within minutes of upload — before audiences see it.
< 6 min detection
02
VALIDATE
Every potential match is automatically validated for accuracy. Evidence packages are compiled — full screenshots, URL hashes, timestamps, WHOIS data — ready for notice filing or legal proceedings.
99.2% precision
03
ENFORCE
Takedown notices are filed automatically via direct API integrations with 300+ platforms, registrars, and hosting providers. Escalation to legal and ISP action triggers on non-compliance. Average removal time under 4 hours.
