Attention News Editors:
Security Expert: Businesses Hardest Hit
By Recent Domain Name Crimes

TORONTO, Aug. 11 /CNW/ - In recent court cases in Canada and Australia companies were found guilty of deceptive communications sent to owners of Internet domain names. Common attempts to defraud domain holders range from confusion to theft.

Businesses are hardest hit by this type of crime because they depend on domain names for communications: email traffic, websites, advertising and
network routing are affected by errors in domain name configuration and
malicious activity. Security expert Claudiu Popa says "businesses need to pay careful attention when managing domain names. They are valuable business assets. It makes sense to register and protect them adequately."

Toronto-based Informatica Security offers Secure Domain Management,
helping businesses register and secure domain names.
