anciens-upmc.org

According to its WHOIS record, ANCIENS-UPMC.ORG was created on October 14, 2008 and expires on October 14, 2018. That is around 18 years of continuous registration. It is registered through Key-Systems GmbH (IANA ID 269) and is past its expiry date. The registrant country on record is France. DNS is served by shiva.jussieu.fr and soleil.uvsq.fr. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for.

In the period from October 21, 2016 to December 5, 2017, 2 fields of the record were modified. It was renewed: the expiry date went from October 14, 2017 to October 14, 2018. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.

For ANCIENS-UPMC.ORG, Whois Data Center keeps 7 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from December 5, 2017. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars.
