Subject [dns-operations] Registrars with a "registry lock" service
Hello people! Our current registrar, Gandi, has increased the renewal
prices of all our domains (.com, .net, .org and .community) to insane
amounts, and we want to switch away from them. We're looking at some
other registrars, viz. Joker (Germany), Oxxa (Netherlands) and PorkBun
(USA). They all offer the usual features we would want from a good
registrar, but none of them have any information on their website about
a specific advanced feature we're looking for, which is called
"registry lock". This is an advanced feature, where the registry
applies a lock on the domain, and changes of any kind have to be
verified with a phone call between registry and registrar. This lock is
a stronger defence against attacks. When a domain has a registry lock
on it, it's visible in the whois output as:
Domain Status: serverDeleteProhibited
https://icann.org/epp#serverDeleteProhibited
Domain Status: serverRenewProhibited
https://icann.org/epp#serverRenewProhibited
Domain Status: clientTransferProhibited
https://icann.org/epp#clientTransferProhibited
Domain Status: serverTransferProhibited
https://icann.org/epp#serverTransferProhibited
Domain Status: serverUpdateProhibited
https://icann.org/epp#serverUpdateProhibited
In the above, the "clientTransferProhibited" is because of a "registrar
lock". This is a standard feature provided by almost all registrars,
and it's not what I'm after. I'm after the "serverDeleteProhibited",
"serverRenewProhibited", "serverTransferProhibited" and
"serverUpdateProhibited" lines. These ensure that the domain cannot be
deleted, transferred, or modified without a manual check by the
registry. Is anyone aware of registrars that provide this service?
