Hebei netizen Guo Jianguang registered guangzhou.cc stolen, currently this domain name is stolen by 500 U.S. dollars on the internet call price. When the domestic domain name reorganization step by step, the domestic Netizen's overseas domain name is frequently the burglary event, and quickly becomes the user complains the hot spot.  In this respect, some analysts pointed out that, because the real-name management has not yet been, domestic netizens to buy and use foreign domain names will still face great risks. "Security, credibility is the cornerstone of the Internet, but occurred in their own domain name stolen events, let people see the foreign Domain name security hidden dangers of unmanned management, as well as network false information rampant."  "In the face of the theft of domain names caused by the loss of recovery, Hebei Netizen Guo Jianguang appears both angry and helpless." Security vulnerabilities led to the domain name easily Shang Guo Jianguang Introduction, he and his friends last year to discuss cooperation to build a service for the Guangzhou Asian Games website. In order to facilitate management, Guo Jianguang last July, the domain name guangzhou.cc transferred to a registered registrar in Xiamen.  According to the regulations, the new transfer Registrar domain name is not allowed to transfer within 60 days, and should have a high safety factor password and mailbox verification. But let Guo Jianguang unexpectedly is, only one months later, the new domain name just to put into use, he unexpectedly discovered domain name has been stolen away. After verification, the domain name is first stolen to a Beijing registrar's website, and then in the site for two consecutive transfer to other people, and finally transferred to foreign registrars to evade the domestic public Security Judicial Department supervision.  In the process of multiple transfer of domain names are used false account information.  In order to recover the domain name, Guo Jianguang and registrars for a number of representations, the other side said that the domain name was stolen because of the foreign domain name of the operation and management system security loopholes, resulting in the CC domain name can be easily transferred to steal, there are several high use value of the CC domain name was stolen. "Xiamen Registrar said the theft is caused by the domain Name System, they also do their best, let me find the CC domain name Operations Management Agency Warisin (while managing all the world's COM, NET, CC, TV and other domain name suffix)." Guo Jianguang introduced, after contacting the CC domain headquarters, Warisin China's related staff finally said there was nothing to do about it.  At the same time, Beijing registrar said the domain name is the company's customers themselves submitted, the domain name is registered under their website false account theft and the company has nothing to do, as to whether the domain name information is false information is a customer problem.  At the same time, Guo Jianguang to remind the domestic netizens, there are many people at high prices to buy and use foreign domain names such as CC, I hope they can be vigilant, to avoid the site bigger after being stolen by a greater loss. ICANN's domain name management has been widely questioned recently, the international Anti-fishing Organization (APWG) has publicly complained about the global Internet Domain name Management Agency ICANN's Domain name registration information management. APWG that, because ICANN management of COM and other domain name registration information accuracy is too low, to deal with various internet problems in a timely manner does not have much value, phishing and other bad applications drilled thisLoophole。 and Guo Jianguang and other individual users, such as Baidu and other large companies due to the domain name management loopholes suffered loss is undoubtedly greater. January 12 This year, the country's largest search engine Baidu encountered attacks, causing its website can not be accessed. Investigation shows that the incident is due to Baidu in the United States domain name registrar in the domain resolution was illegally modified, resulting in the global user can not normally visit Baidu.  Because of the huge loss, Baidu CEO Robin Li in the evaluation of the impact of the black incident Baidu, unexpectedly used three "unprecedented." As early as 2005, Tianya suddenly changed the domain name "www.tianyaclub.com" to "www.tianya.cn", and immediately enabled the new domain name to achieve access.  Afterwards identified, a former end of the site of the staff is the original domain name of the owner, because unwilling to allow the staff's expensive requirements, Tianya was forced to change the domain name. "Such things happen in the domestic internet, just to illustrate the site managers of their own rights and interests to protect the indifference."  "A domain name investors pointed out that due to the existence of legal vacuum, the management of foreign domain name loopholes so that domestic users in the" loss "will often complain without door. Because the domain name registration information is not true, inaccurate, once the domain name registration information has been malicious tampering, the domain name holder and the Registrar Communication Solution, will be at a disadvantage, not only affect the resolution of the crisis speed and efficiency, but also to the normal operation of the site and business operations bring huge negative effects.  For Guo Jianguang such as domain name investors, once the domain name is lost or disputes, often because of the inability to prove or communicate complex and lose the virtual property. Only 23% domain registration information is true from the United States domain name registration Service company VeriSign (Warisin) figures show that the fourth quarter of 2009, the global new 11 million domain name registration, by the end of 2009,  The total number of domain names reached 192 million, which is 15 million more than 177 million at the end of 2008. Although the size of the market is expanding, but the overseas domain name registration information is not yet fundamentally improved. The Internet domain name Management Agency, ICANN published the survey report, COM, NET, ORG, INFO, biz and other domain name registration information is very prominent, the domain name of the investigation, registered information is true only accounted for 23%.  That is why the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) received 2329 complaints of domain name disputes in 2008, up 8% from the previous year. The loopholes in the management of foreign domain names provide convenient conditions for criminals to carry out illegal and criminal activities. According to Guo Jianguang, in various attempts to fail, last November 14, a self-proclaimed spent 2300 dollars to buy the relevant domain name with QQ initiative to contact him, and said that the domain name is stolen, others do not dare to buy their own also dare not to use, to thousands of U.S. dollars to sell Guo Jianguang low price. Guo Jianguang made it clear that the domain name would have been his, so he would not compromise with the thief, even if the other party could price himAlso refused to trade with it.  A few days later, Guo Jianguang found that the domain name on the Web page was marked 500 dollars for ultra-low prices, but so far no one dares to buy. Real name made the only solution "I would have been ready to host the foreign server, but see the risk of COM domain names so large, had to give up temporarily."  "Have a small E-commerce site to fly (net name) told reporters, the recent preparation for a CN domain name, and then go to Shenzhen to choose a good point of the company hosting server, although the formalities trouble point, but after all safe. In order to purify the network environment, in the fourth quarter of last year, the Ministry of Department and other departments launched a special network pornography movement. Since then, the Ministry issued the relevant provisions of domain name management, the requirements of the site did not record the domain name does not resolve (including jump), which has a large number of personal sites in the country has brought serious impact.  This February, the Ministry of Information issued a notice again, requesting all Web site organizers must pass the identity of the face-to-face audit. In an interview, Minister Li Yizhong made clear that the network real-name system is a direction, but also the world's joint efforts to strengthen network management measures.  According to the introduction, in the next period of time, with the strengthening of personal web site management, the permanent shutdown or temporary shutdown of the number of personal sites will increase, personal sites will usher in a temporary "frozen period." Although the personal website has been comprehensively reorganized, but the domestic network market does purify a lot. Symantec recently released a new report on the Global Spam and phishing website, which shows that 2010, the CN country Domain name bad application rate dropped sharply.  In January this year, for example, the CN domain name of the bad application than the first one months down more than half, and increasingly become the world's most secure national top-level domain name. In fact, after the pornography movement began, the domestic network people have called for, the network real-name system is the general trend, and domain names should be first. From the current situation, CN domain name because of long-term in the domestic management, in the registration and other links have gradually moved to the real names.  In contrast, COM, NET, CC and other international domain names because of easy registration, but it has become the object of the use of criminals. Commercial news reporter Mao Tao tao/Wen Chenwei/video link domain name false arbitration rate up to 70% the latest statistics show that in the past two years, China international economic and Trade Arbitration Commission and the Hong Kong International Arbitration Center two major arbitration institutions have accepted thousands of COM, NET, CN and other domain name dispute, Cumulative 434 cases of the result of "disputed domain name from the original holder of the transfer", of which 301 cases were registered by the complainant to provide false information and led to the case in absentia, the domain name is considered malicious registration and was decided to transfer.  According to this calculation, the domain name information is not real arbitration rate close to 70%. Professor Chu, Ph. D., director of Intellectual property Law at China University of Political Science, said that more and more well-known enterprises have seized the "domain name dispute cases quickly, the domain name information is not real high" characteristics, the tendency to obtain domain names through arbitration, notis to take the domain name transactions, it can be said that the domain name information has become the original owner of the domain name rights and interests of the largest loss of "Bane." The Domain name registration information is not true, not only is the arbitration institution can "judge by default", but also the source of the domain name holder for arbitration may be ruled "domain name transfer".
