On Monday, January 24, 2022, the registry of .bank will release these Bank-Domains:
Please contact secura@domainregistry.de.
The .bank domain is a new, more secure Internet domain for banks. It is an easily identifiable channel for trusted communications between banks and their customers. And the .bank domain is a place for growth and innovation.
Only verified members of the banking community can have a .bank domain for their trademarks, trade names and service marks.
Banks contend with a range of operational issues, from launching and cross-selling financial products, to improving customer retention, to meeting compliance and regulatory requirements. In addition, banks must protect their assets and operations from the very real threat of cyber security. Migrating to a .bank domain provides a lot of answers and options.
The .bank domain is brand new - and how banks use the new domain will undoubtedly vary. But there is one thing every bank has in common regarding their .bank domain - time.
"It's important that banks get ready now," said Craig Schwartz, managing director of fTLD, the private company that is owned, operated and governed by banks, insurance companies and their respective trade associations. "Our research with banks shows a high level of awareness about the .bank domain. However, they may not yet realize the process, the implications, or the full value that a .bank domain can deliver. If banks delay, they run a risk of being unable to secure their preferred web address. No other domain can match the caliber of value, security and trust like a .bank address."
In fact, enhanced security requirements are one of the primary reasons for banks to consider when evaluating the new domain, according to fTLD's market research. Schwartz explained that fTLD will implement a series of critical controls not currently required by the operators of any other commercial domain, in order to mitigate existing cyber risks and build a high-trust environment for users of the .bank domain.
"With today's technology, we know there is no silver bullet that will eradicate the malicious activities that are propagated over the Internet," said Schwartz. "But the security requirements fTLD mandates for the .bank domains will bring a level of trust and protection that exceeds that available in any existing commercially available gTLD."
"It's critical that banks get educated and mobilized quickly," said Schwartz. "The .bank domain will be a trusted, verified, more secure and easily identifiable location on the Internet for them to do business and it is only a couple of months away. Banks that can organize themselves now will be the ones that truly take advantage of this significant step forward for the industry."
