[CPWG] Transfer Policy Review Team: Question about the 60-days lock

[Theo Geurts]

Compliance showed us the number of complaints regarding unauthorized transfers yesterday. The numbers were low ranging from 1-20 a month, with little to no indication of real domain name hijacks. 

Account control panel compromises (a strong indicator) were absent for most of the months. 

Average domain transfers are around 400.000-500.000 a month. 

Best.
