VeriSignŽ Domain Name Zone Alerts help customers to
keep pace with the millions of changes made to the .com and .net zone
file every day in near real-time. Domain Name Zone Alerts provide
the aggregated report of the additions, deletions, and modifications
of .com and .net domain names, name servers, and IP addresses.
VeriSign, the global registry operator for the .com
and .net generic Top Level Domain Names (gTLDs), propagates Domain Name
System (DNS) updates to the .com and .net zone files every few minutes.
These near real-time updates provide a rich set of timely data that
gives insight into what is happening in the .com and .net zone files.
Domain Name Zone Alerts provide this data to you in near real-time.
Enhancing Internet Security and Brands
Domain Name Zone Alerts are intended to help companies
develop services that address the problems of phishing, fraud and identity
theft as well as brand infringement by providing data to help detect
the existence of domain names that may have been registered to facilitate
these illegal or infringing practices.
Phishing, fraud and identity theft are rapidly growing
problems threatening electronic commerce, financial services, and other
services provided on the Internet. Criminal organizations utilize
a variety of techniques to lure unsuspecting Internet users into revealing
confidential information, including the method of the registration of
misleading domain names that are similar to those of legitimate organizations.
Domain Name Zone Alerts will assist online security companies, ISPs,
search engines, financial service companies, and other stakeholders
in Internet services and security to develop products and services that
keep pace with the rapid rate at which these changes occur and thus,
improve their anti-phishing capabilities.
Protecting your brand and trademarks online is essential
for companies today. Misuse of your brand can damage the brand
equity that you have so carefully established. Domain Name Zone
Alerts will provide data to assist companies to develop products and
services that identify and detect domain names that may infringe on
their brands.
