This way Verisign would like to get the possibility to interfere when they notice a .com, .net or .name domain name is used registered in bad faith.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Thanks to this new policy, Verisign would be able to check whether a .com, .net or .name domain is using malware. Malware means that someone tries to install certain software on your computer once you surf to a particular website. This software can then be used later on to send out spam. If a website uses such software, then Verisign could reject the registration or transfer of such a name. Moreover they can also lock or delete the domain name. Like this they&#8217;ll be able to offer a better guarantee for the security of the DNS, to protect themselves against malware and to comply with any applicable court orders.<\/p>\n<p>The question is of course if with this new procedure certain names won&#8217;t be deleted by mistake. It is possible that someone installs malware on your website and that you aren&#8217;t aware of this. If Verisign finds malware on your website, they&#8217;ll confiscate your domain name without you even knowing you were doing something wrong. Verisign will be offering a protest procedure to reactivate domain names which were deleted by mistake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Verisign, the registry which is responsible for the management of .com, .net and .name names has asked ICANN to approve an &#8216;Anti Abuse Domain Use Policy&#8217;.
