Registered on January 8, 2015, KIT-GROUP.COM is paid up until January 8, 2025. This gives it about 11 years of history. GMO INTERNET INC. (IANA ID 49) is the registrar of record, and the domain is currently past its expiry date. The registrant country on record is Japan. Its nameservers are dns02.gmoserver.jp and dns01.gmoserver.jp. 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. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. 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. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes.
The two newest snapshots are identical, a sign of a stable registration. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
The Whois Data Center archive contains 7 historical WHOIS snapshots for KIT-GROUP.COM. The newest snapshot was taken on September 3, 2022. 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. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time.
