I can't vouch for "security focused" - but Gandi.net have so far never let me down. They're based in France, so not susceptible to US law (dependent on the TLD you use of course) and have a huge variety of TLDs.
Can't recommend Gandi enough, they do exactly what they say on the tin - "no bullshit".
- jarin 15y agoGandi is pretty awesome, but just be aware that your credit card company might freeze your card the first time you buy from them (apparently buying domain names in other countries is a fraud trigger) :D
- Maxious 15y agoNever had that problem with Gandi but buying digital goods from Facebook froze my card. Apparently they were a hive for credit card thief testing at that point in time because of the low value of virtual gifts (1 US cent?).
- christefano 15y agoThis happened to me, too (twice!), but I now use PayPal instead of my credit card and my bank no longer freezes my account.
- geocar 15y agoI've had other positive experiences with Gandi.net: They hooked one of their VPS servers up with a BGP feed so I could announce my AS there for testing a new Anycast service.
- gregsadetsky 15y agoGandi is great and resilient. I know from personal communication with them that the Yes Men recommend using their domain services (they also favor joker.com, which is based in Germany -- I've had a good experience there as well, although Joker doesn't offer VPS services like Gandi).
- AdamGibbins 15y agoGandi also have excellent free DNS hosting services. With an excellent control panel including grouping and raw BIND config.
- stfp 15y agoGandi is super awesome ! One quick thing though: since last year they have a US subsidiary (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gandi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gandi), which might or might not make them more susceptible to US law.
