GoDaddy Safeguards Customer Data

GoDaddy Safeguards Customer Data - 2008-02-29

The Registrar Data Escrow (RDE) program is an ICANN initiative designed to protect consumers from losing control of their domain names should a registrar lose its accreditation or go defunct.

Of course, Go Daddy, the global leader in domain registrations, has always backed up its data – including the registrant and other contact information – through a multi-pronged program that also protects registrants’ privacy.

Escrowing the data with ICANN, per the new regulations, provides an additional layer of security, while also setting a good example for the registrar community.

“Go Daddy’s customers already enjoy unparalleled, world-class customer support and security,” Go Daddy CEO and Founder Bob Parsons said. “But as the world’s undisputed leader in domain registrations, we feel it is our responsibility to take the lead on this important issue.”

Go Daddy’s registrars are partnering with information protection and storage firm Iron Mountain, also the ICANN designated Registrar Data Escrow Agent, on the project. The new initiative requires all registrars to deposit a copy of their registration databases each week, with high-volume registrars depositing incremental updates daily.

“By getting industry leaders, such as Go Daddy, on board – early in the process – our testing with large volumes of data is streamlined. Go Daddy’s participation has been key to ICANN’s rollout of the Registrar Data Escrow program,” said John Boruvka, vice president of Iron Mountain’s Intellectual Property Management services.

The Go Daddy Group is led by its flagship, GoDaddy.com, the world’s largest domain name registrar. Go Daddy has more than 27 million names in its portfolio and serves 5 million customers worldwide. It is also one of the planet’s best Web hosting providers. It hosts more Web sites with SSL certificates – which guarantee the encryption of sensitive data – than any other company on the globe.
