Learn What You Should Do to Protect Your Domains.

We all know that hackers and eCriminals attack websites directly, skillfully and frequently. As site administrators have grown more skilled at protecting themselves, hackers have turned to a new attack vector: hijacking site addresses.

Site-address attacks, a relatively new phenomenon, emerged as hackers discovered that many domain registries and registrars were relatively soft targets. Targeting registries and registrars with the aim of pointing the domains to a different location — “changing the signpost,” so to speak, is becoming more prevalent and is a danger that must be addressed by a solid domain security strategy.

In this paper, MarkMonitor discusses these new types of domain attacks, including DNS attacks and those against the domain registration and management portal, and describe the damage they inflict. MarkMonitor suggests strategies for avoiding these attacks by putting a plan in place to ensure your domains are secure not only at the registrar level, but at the registry level as well.
