Minutes from the GNSO-TPR meeting on January 9, 2024
Requested updated matrix from ICANN Compliance is delayed. Expected to be delievered within January 2024.
The working group continued the discussion on security measures connected to Change of Registrant (CoR). Staff presented preliminary recommendations.
Pre.Rec. #1
The Working Group recommends that, following a Change of Registrant,* the Registrar MUST send a notification** of the Change of Registrant to the Prior Registrant, as listed in the Registration Data immediately prior to the Change of Registrant, and the New Registrant without undue delay [but no later than 24 hours after the Change of Registrant occurred.]
1.1 This notification MUST be written in the language of the registration agreement and MAY also be provided in English or other languages.
1.2 The Registrar MUST include the following elements in the Change of Registrant notification:
❖ Domain name(s)
❖ Text stating that the contact information was updated
❖ Date and time that the Change of Registrant was completed
❖ Instructions detailing how the Prior/New Registrant can take action if the change was invalid (how to initiate a reversal)
Currently: Registrars must notify the Prior Registrant and New Registrant before or within one day of the completion of the Change of Registrant. This notification must contain contact information for questions.
Note: Section 3.7.8. of the 2013 RAA re: Registrar’s responsibility to investigate any reports of inaccurate registrant data, and take reasonable steps to correct that inaccuracy.
Pre.Rec. #2
The Working Group recommends eliminating from the Transfer Policy the requirement that the Registrar impose a 60-day inter-registrar transfer lock following a Change of Registrant. This requirement is detailed in section II.C.2 of the Transfer Policy. Additionally, the Working Group recommends eliminating from the Transfer Policy the text regarding opting out of the 60-day lock, as this text has been overtaken by the removal of the lock requirement from the Transfer Policy.
Rationale: The Working Group has noted the 60-day lock has been a source of confusion and frustration among registrants, and has not definitively demonstrated that it effectively prevents domain hijacking/hopping. The removal of this lock is therefore recommended, in lieu of the working group’s other recommendations to provide greater security, namely:
Currently: Registrars must impose a 60-day inter-registrar transfer lock following a Change of Registrant. However, Registrars may allow the RNH to opt out of the 60-day lock prior to any COR request.
Pre.Rec. #3
When a TAC request follows a recent Change of Registrant*, Registrars shall utilize the five calendar day (120 hour) period for TAC issuance to ensure due diligence that the TAC request is requested/authorized by the Registered Name Holder or their designated representative.
Proposed new wording: When a TAC request follows a recent Change of Registrant*, Registrars MAY utilize the five calendar day (120 hour) period for TAC issuance to review and validate any recent COR changes.
Group 1a Prelim. Rec. 12: The working group confirms that the Transfer Policy MUST continue to require Registrars to set the TAC at the Registry and issue the TAC to the RNH or their designated representative within five calendar days of a request, although the working group recommends that the policy state the requirement as 120 hours rather than 5 calendar days to reduce any risk of confusion. The working group further recommends that the policy MUST make clear that 120 hours is the maximum and not the standard period in which the TAC is to be issued.
The working group discussed what is included in "due diligence". Also ref RAA section 3.7.8.
