As a domain name reseller, you know better than anyone that a domain name is essential for (online) businesses. After all, without a domain name you cannot be found and visible to potential customers. Moreover, without a domain name, you cannot use business e-mail. As you can imagine, the consequences of a domain name no longer being available are incalculable. One of the measures you can offer as a reseller is a so-called registry lock.
A registry lock is actually an extra layer of security on a domain name. This means that additional steps and verification are required before adjustments can be made to the domain name. These adjustments can range from changing registrars to transferring a domain to another owner.
By applying a registry lock, you reduce the chances of unauthorized modifications being made within the domain name. This is because the person who wants to make the changes has to go through much more effort to go through the entire verification process. You create, in addition to security for domain name holders, peace of mind for the organizations or indiviuals who own valuable domain names or are in sensitive industries.
