The 26th China Internet Development Statistics Report released recently, its content shows that up to the end of June 2010, the total number of Chinese domain names fell to 11.21 million, the CN domain name in the total number of domain names to the ratio from 80% to 64.7%, and the proportion of COM domain name from 16.6% to 29.6%. CN domain Name and COM domain name registration volume growth is significant gap.

COM domain name has been 25 years of history, it is widely used in the International Domain name form, compared to the CN domain name is administered by China's international top-level domain. Some people call the COM domain name is "The foreign number", and the CN domain name belongs to "the earth number", because the latter can let the visitor determine the website the Chinese attribute.

Since the rise of the internet in China, occupy the network territory more and more for government agencies, enterprises and even individuals favored, domain name registration volume of explosive growth. However, some people also pointed out that this growth is also implied in our country's domain name management is imperfect. For example, the Ministry of Industries required the CN domain name prohibits the registration of domain names, but never to the COM domain name and other foreign domain names have similar requirements. Because the registration process is not limited to individual registration and simple, the information is freely filled out, without the site record, the overseas domain name by many individual stationmaster as well as the small and medium-sized Enterprise user's welcome, the registration quantity naturally grows rapidly.

Network security experts said that now the network has become the territory, territorial waters, airspace after the fourth-dimensional space, and the real space has direct constraints, so the future of the overall strength of the country depends largely on the development of the Internet field. The Obama administration announced that "from now on, our digital infrastructure will be considered a national strategic asset". As the infrastructure to support the development of the Internet, the control of national domain name is particularly important.

For the decline in the CN domain name and the growth of COM domain name, network security experts said that China's relevant institutions, organizations, the application of foreign domain name services, will likely lead to serious security risks, and even endanger the country's network security.

In fact, worry is not unreasonable. January 12, 2010, the world's largest Chinese search engine Baidu was attacked by hackers, a long period of time can not be normal access to the Internet at home and abroad has caused a significant impact, the reason lies in the application of Baidu's foreign domain name server security vulnerabilities, resulting in the domain name hijacked.

In May this year, a Shenzhen company purchased the overseas domain name in the normal use period by the overseas Domain Name service provider to sell again, causes the company to lose up to 30 million yuan.

At present, in the implementation of domain name real names management, CN Domain security, credibility has been promoted, CN domain name has been fully equipped with the conditions of spam, yellow Web sites, fishing sites, such as the three major internet "cancer" shut out. Therefore, the experts suggested that China should continue to vigorously promote national domain names. As China's autonomous management of the national domain name, CN domain Name server and management rights in China, CN domain name widely used and protect our country's national network security is closely related.
