statepolicymatters.org

According to its WHOIS record, STATEPOLICYMATTERS.ORG was created on July 26, 2006 and expires on July 26, 2023. That makes the domain about 20 years old. It is registered through eNom Inc. (IANA ID 48) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in United States. DNS is served by ns2.forumone.com and ns.forumone.com. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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. 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. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name.

Whois Data Center has 7 historical WHOIS snapshots for STATEPOLICYMATTERS.ORG. The most recent capture is from November 17, 2022. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. 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. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. 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. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains.
