ICANN is asking Demand Media's eNom division for answers following complaints from Internet security groups, says an IDG report.
The report says that eNom has come under fire following a “report from
HostExploit, a volunteer-run anti-malware research group. According to
HostExploit, eNom is host to an unusually large number of malicious
websites and is a preferred domain name registrar for pharmaceutical
spammers.”
ICANN is now looking into the matter Kurt Pritz, senior vice president of services at ICANN told IDG.
According to the HostExploit report, “some eNom resellers are violating
ICANN rules by allowing customers to provide false Whois database
information, not following ICANN deletion policy and generally not
complying with their obligations as resellers.”
