You're right, MarkMonitor's portfolio is truly impressive, so there must be something to it. I just thought that precisely those top tech companies (maybe not banks) would appreciate having the additional security layer that arguably comes from being your own registrar, and do so effortlessly.
- silencio 15y agoPerhaps. Then again, with an agreement between the companies involved and whatever mostly-unknown-to-us services they provide, the additional security layer you speak of could be meaningless. I doubt most of the legal teams of said corporations would be okay with this arrangement if it was potentially insecure. And of course there is no such thing as "effortlessly", someone somewhere has to be around to manage the huge domain name portfolios these corporations have. I really wish MarkMonitor's website wasn't basically a bunch of marketing mumbo jumbo about all the services they provide. It'd be interesting to find out what they are being paid to do (even in brief) for all these major companies. For all we know they could just be a glorified godaddy for corporations that buy and hold a lot of domain names as far as their domain registry service is concerned.
