According to foreign media reports, the registry responsible for operating the ". org" domain name, public acquires Registry (hereinafter referred to as "PIR"), said in Wednesday that the agency would introduce additional security measures to combat identity theft.

Industry sources said that the. org domain name would be the first DNS (domain Name System) to take additional security measures, but DNS, such as ". com" and ".

In practical terms, the new measures provide a "lock" of effective data to ensure that the data has not been tampered with during transmission, and this security measure has been used by Web sites in countries such as Brazil, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Puerto Rico and Sweden. Jalecosa-PIR, the chief executive, said Internet domain name registries Comcast and Go Daddy have agreed to implement this additional security measure, which is expected to be followed by other registries.

For ordinary Internet users, they will not find any changes when they log on to the Ord site. Sites using the. com and. NET suffixes are expected to adopt this additional DNS security measures before the first quarter of 2011.
