DOMAIN
LOCK / Transfer Shield / Transfer Lock

NextRegister.com considers the safety and security of their customers' domain names as a top priority mission due to the alarming increase in fraudulent domain transfer requests and the many crooks who prey on the unsophisticated and those who innocently have their guard down. 

Our normal security procedures will suffice in most cases to keep your domain safe. If you have any concerns, however, you can use our Transfer Lock / Transfer Shield feature to keep your domains secure.

To secure your domain against unauthorized transfers, you can lock your domain. Locking your domain ensures that an authorization code (auth code) cannot be generated for your domain, and the auth code is required to transfer your domain to another service provider. This is a security feature that has been designed to ensure that you have full control over any changes made to your domain.

To lock a domain

1.Click Manage, and log in to your account.
2.Beside the domain name, click Transfer Lock.
3.In the Domain Locking drop-down list, choose Enabled, and then click Save.

What is an auth code? The auth code is a unique combination of characters, similar to a password, that is used to show verifiable proof of ownership of a domain. If you are transferring a domain to another service provider, you must supply the auth code to that provider to show that you have the authority to transfer the domain. The auth code can only be generated by the owner of the domain.
