The biggest names in domain registrations have been breached

Hello all,

I’m unfamiliar with register.com, but I am familiar with Network Solutions. I’m also unfamiliar with web.com as well. Apparently they’re under the same umbrella and it got hacked. According to Breaches at NetworkSolutions, Register.com, and Web.com one is letting their customers know on their web page and reaching out by email, one has info but its buried, and the other has nothing. This is just not the way to do things. You need to be as transparent with your customers as you possibly can. Let them know what you know, so they understand what is happening. Its the best medicine you can have.

Have you seen coverage or is this the first time you’re seeing this? If its the first time, be notified of it now, and see if anything is compromised I.E. domains you control and the like. It doesn’t look like in the article that nothing was touched, but you just never know. Stay safe.
