How does Afilias control access to the Shared Registry System?
Access to the Shared Registry System is restricted by 3 mechanisms: • Access control to the production SRS is restricted by IP address filters. • SSL encryption is required for the communication channels between the Registrar’s client system and the OT&E and production systems. • Authentication by means of a username and password is required for session establishment. The SRS requires the correct combination of the three mechanisms for each registrar before access is granted.
