"Domain locking" is a measure to avoid unwanted domain transfer, and to keep it secure against the danger of domain theft.
If you want to avoid a domain is transferred without your permission, you need to enable Domain Locking in our control panel  domain details page.
If this lock is enabled the domain can’t be transferred until it has been manually disabled again.

Domain Locking is available for:  ccTLD (.com .net .org .info .biz), for newTLD and .name .ag .bz .cc .in .la .pl .sc .tk .tv .tw .us .mobi 

This option is free, and we do recommend to enable it!
