Domain Lock prevents your domain name from being updated or transferred without you first unlocking your domain from within your Account at my.101domain.com.
Often referred to as Domain Update Lock, the domain locking service sets your domain name registered with us to enabled status to prevent your domain name from being updated or transferred without you first unlocking your domain from within your account. Your domain can still be renewed and accessed within your account.
Once your domain is registered and active in our system, you will see this setting available in your domain name settings screen (if domain locking is available for your domain name).
Domain Update Lock adds the following security features to your account;
- Protects against DNS modifications, updating the auth code, and various other modifications. A domain name with this status lock is included in the zone files, can be transferred, deleted, and renewed.
- Protects from unauthorized transfers out of our system to another Registrar. A domain name with this lock is included in the zone files, can be updated, deleted and renewed.
In combination with safeguarding against unauthorized or accidental updates or the transfer out of your domain, you can get superior Registrar/Registry level security with Portfolio Secure.
