Why domain security matters
A compromised domain can redirect a website or interfere with services that rely on the domain. Protecting domain control is therefore as important as protecting the website itself.
Protection layers
- A secure Kiyo password
- Two-factor authentication
- A compatible security key
- Transfer protection where the domain supports it
- Additional verification for sensitive changes
- Current contact information
- Renewal protection and a valid payment method
Sensitive domain actions
A transfer, nameserver change, ownership or contact change, or removal of protection can require you to re-authenticate or confirm identity.
What Kiyo handles
Kiyo keeps transfer protection active where applicable, separates advanced domain controls from normal management and adds verification to high-risk actions. Security status and important renewal information remain visible in the domain area.
What you must do
- Protect the Kiyo and email accounts
- Keep recovery information current
- Do not approve unexpected transfer or sign-in requests
- Review domain alerts promptly
- Ask for human support when ownership or control is uncertain
An unexpected domain change is urgent
