New Domain Needs Configurable Number of Days

I think the New Domain filter is a great idea but 30 days is way too long. There's too many false positives so I had to turn it off. If I could turn it down to maybe 2 or 3 days I think that would be a good balance. There would be time for DNSFilter and browser blacklists to be updated with threats as they appear, but probably not block legit newly developed sites.

New threat category - Very New Domains is now available! Domains which have been registered in the last 24 hours, which have a high probability of serving malicious resources can now be blocked.

The New domain issue isn't as bad as the logic for Parked domains. Every day we get tickets for customers which blocked URL's as "Parked". These are domains that have been working for 10+ years. Fix the Parked domain logic and scan again. If a domain was Parked years ago... IT IS NOT PARKED FOREVER!

Hi voters! Our Domain Intelligence/Data Science and Engineering teams are currently evaluating a "Very New Domain" category that would associate new domains for approximately 24 hours.
We will keep you updated as this progresses!

That is a great suggestion Isaac. And just to clarify, you would configure for fewer days to avoid blocking potentially legitimate domains?
