Abstract: A device receives a first network connection request, that does not include a domain name server (DNS) query, for establishment of a connection to a target destination. The device determines whether information identifying the target destination matches information identifying a permissible destination, included in a set of permissible destinations, identified in connection with a second network connection request, where the second network connection request included a prior DNS query and was received prior to the first network connection request being received, and where a prior security verification was performed in connection with the second network connection request and the prior DNS query.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for forwarding a web address to another web address is presented. A web forwarder receives a request destined to a first web address including at least a domain name. The web forwarder then determines a forwarding uniform resource locator (URL) that corresponds to the domain name and redirects the request to a second web address that corresponds to the forwarding URL.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for interfacing multiple registrar systems are presented. A first registrar system is operable to book a domain name for a customer in a first manner. A second registrar system is operable to book a domain name for a customer in a second manner different than the first manner. A means for interfacing the first registrar system and the second registrar system is provided such that the first registrar system and the second registrar system are accessible from a single web site.
