How to Protect Your Domain Name (Lock, Privacy, Renewal)

How domains actually get stolen

Four moves cover the real attack surface:

1. Registrar lock ON — blocks unauthorized transfers at the registry level
2. Account security — 2FA on the registrar account; your email account IS your domain account, so protect it harder
3. Auto-renew with a fallback card — expiry is the most common 'theft'
4. WHOIS privacy — hides your identity from social-engineering recon

Add monitoring: WHOIS change alerts catch hijacks early, and ICANN's 60-day transfer window gives you a recovery lane after suspicious changes. Our domain registration India panel includes lock and privacy toggles, the registrar lock guide explains the mechanics, and domain transfer discipline keeps legitimate moves smooth.
