prionbooks.net

The domain PRIONBOOKS.NET was first registered on August 10, 2017 and its current term runs until August 10, 2027. That makes the domain about 9 years old. Its sponsoring registrar is CSC Corporate Domains, Inc. (IANA ID 299), and the domain is active. The public WHOIS shows the registrant organisation as Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, based in United States. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. 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. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry.

Whois Data Center has 10 historical WHOIS snapshots for PRIONBOOKS.NET. The most recent capture is from October 31, 2026. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. 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. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. 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.

From January 27, 2026 to October 31, 2026, 4 fields were updated. The expiry date moved from August 10, 2026 to August 10, 2027, which shows the domain was renewed. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
