Registered on September 22, 2018, KUNIAO.NET is paid up until September 22, 2023. This gives it about 8 years of history. eName Technology Co.Ltd. (IANA ID 1331) is the registrar of record, and the domain is currently past its expiry date. Unauthorised transfer and deletion are prevented by its status flags. The registrant country on record is China. Its nameservers are ns4.dns.com and ns3.dns.com. 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. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details.
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 17 historical WHOIS snapshots for KUNIAO.NET. The newest snapshot was taken on December 25, 2022. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains.
