platinux.org

The domain PLATINUX.ORG was first registered on June 25, 2016 and its current term runs until June 25, 2017. That makes the domain about 10 years old. Its sponsoring registrar is eNom Inc. (IANA ID 48), and the domain is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in India. DNS is served by dns1.name-services.com, dns2.name-services.com, dns3.name-services.com and dns4.name-services.com. 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. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS 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. 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.

Whois Data Center has 4 historical WHOIS snapshots for PLATINUX.ORG. The most recent capture is from June 28, 2016. 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. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. 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.

46 fields changed between the two most recent snapshots. Status flags were updated: addPeriod, clientTransferProhibited and serverTransferProhibited were added. The registrant organisation is no longer shown in the public record. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
