IDIQ.COM was registered on December 13, 1995, and is set to expire on December 13, 2023. This gives it about 30 years of history. The domain is managed by DNC Holdings Inc (IANA ID 291) and is past its expiry date. Unauthorised transfer, deletion and updates are prevented by its status flags. The registrant country on record is United States. It uses the nameservers ns-cloud-c1.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-c4.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-c3.googledomains.com and ns-cloud-c2.googledomains.com, which means its DNS is run by Google. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. 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. 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. 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.

Between December 9, 2022 and January 26, 2023, 4 fields of the record changed. It was renewed: the expiry date went from December 12, 2023 to December 13, 2023. The complete history is available below and can be exported for your own analysis.

The Whois Data Center archive contains 16 historical WHOIS snapshots for IDIQ.COM. The latest available snapshot is dated January 26, 2023. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. 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. 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. 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.
