How does a back order protect a domain name from being “hijacked”?
Our service monitors domain records and will notify you instantly if that record is changed. If, for example, someone “hacks” into the domain record and redirects it elsewhere, you will receive a notification that the record has been changed. This gives you time to correct the problem before it propagates across the Internet – which often means the difference between a minor event and a major disaster. The service protects against other potential perils (employee sabotage, unintended expiration, etc.) in the same manner. In addition to giving “early warning” of various perils, the back order will automatically attempt to re-acquire the domain for the back order subscriber.
