Custom Domain Protection for Cloudflare Registrar
Custom Domain Protection for Cloudflare Registrar, available on the Enterprise plan, protects your organization from domain hijacking with exclusively out-of-band verification of any changes to your Registrar account.
WHAT IS DOMAIN HIJACKING?
Hijacked domain
When an attacker hijacks a domain, the owner no longer has control over the site content, email, VoIP, or any other services that rely on the domain name. This is a serious threat to an organization’s brand and reputation.
Compromised registrar
One way that domain hijacking occurs is when an attacker compromises a registrar account and changes the nameserver or other registration information. The registrar, believing that the changes originated from an authorized registrant, sends the new information to the registry.
