I propose we bolster our phishing detection capabilities by factoring an Dnstwist-based option or capability for OpenSquat. Dnstwist is adept at identifying potential phishing domains by generating derivative attack domains from an inputted domain, making it a crucial asset in phishing prevention. Hosted web site to try it out: https://dnstwister.report/ Further details on Dnstwist can be found here: https://github.com/elceef/dnstwist.

Hello @OrlandoMD

The DNS Fuzzing method is interesting, but it may take some time to develop this feature unless someone joins the development team.
