From Intelligence to Impact: How Cosmetics Brands Can Tackle Counterfeiting at the Source

Move beyond takedowns to tackle the source

Counterfeit cosmetics continue to evolve, with increasingly sophisticated networks operating across digital marketplaces, social media, messaging apps, and physical supply chains. While online enforcement remains essential, many brands are asking the same question: how do we move beyond removing listings and start disrupting the networks behind them?

Join fellow brand protection professionals for an interactive discussion on how intelligence, collaboration, and enforcement can work together to deliver greater impact. Through shared experiences and practical examples, we'll explore how digital signals can help inform real-world action and support more effective investigations.

Explore the challenges shaping the next generation of brand protection

This discussion is designed to encourage open conversation between peers facing many of the same challenges. Together, we'll explore topics including:

• Identifying the right moment to move from online enforcement to offline investigations
• Using digital intelligence to uncover the people, locations, and networks behind counterfeit activity
• Supporting customs, investigators, and enforcement agencies with actionable intelligence
• Sharing lessons learned from recent investigations within the cosmetics sector
• Exploring where collaboration between brands can strengthen enforcement efforts
• Discussing emerging challenges and opportunities for intelligence-led brand protection

The session will include an exclusive investigation case study to help frame the discussion, providing real-world insight into how online intelligence supported coordinated enforcement activity against a counterfeit network.
