IE domain one of best in the world

Over 260 top-level domains were ranked in the research.

Commenting on the results, Mr David Curtin, Chief Executive of the IE Domain Registry (IEDR), said: “It is no surprise that .ie was ranked so favourably, as the second safest domain name in the world. The .ie domain name is governed by a managed registry model, which means that applicants for a domain name must authenticate their claim to a domain name. The benefits of this are; there are virtually no cyber-crimes, identity theft nor credit card fraud, less incidences of spam and virtually no cyber-squatting. With a .ie site, you know who you are doing business with.”
