CSC's Domain Portfolio Consolidation provides a fast,
efficient way to manage all your domains in one place
Having domain names with multiple vendors is a challenge
for brand owners. Firstly, you have to deal with each
vendor, their own systems and processes and raise multiple
purchase orders. This can be made more complicated
by having to manage your company’s domains across
different business units and departments.
Additionally there are external factors such as new
domain launches, increased usage of the Internet and
an increase of domain name infringement. All of these
factors increase the time, risk and costs associated
with managing your domain portfolio.
Why consolidate to one Vendor?
There are a number of reasons why consolidating to
one vendor is the most cost-effective strategic decision.
- Reducing Costs
- Reducing Time
- Reducing Risk
CSC assist on all three of these reasons and you can
be sure that you are using the right strategic partner
as CSC has years of experience in helping large corporations
and law firms manage their valuable assets. We are
the largest corporate domain name registrar in the
world, managing domains for over 50% of the world’s

DNS (Domain Name System) failure is one of the most
common causes of web site and email outages. When it
is running smoothly, DNS can remain a technical consideration;
however, when problems occur, all departments will
be affected and DNS will become a core business consideration.
Is your DNS solution reliable? Don’t wait for
problems to occur before you ask this question: it
will cost your business time and money.
Developing an effective two-tier DNS strategy
CSC recognizes that, while some domains are used for
business purposes, most are registered for defensive
reasons, and has built a DNS infrastructure that supports
two different levels of service (Premium and Basic)
at two different price points for maximum cost-effectiveness.

names

Communicate globally with Internationalized Domain
Names (IDNs)
With over half a billion Internet users who do not
speak English, IDNs will become more important than
ever. IDNs are domain names that contain non-ASCII
characters, which essentially means any letters that
are not in the English alphabet. Examples include bücher.de
and músicagratis.com. Already introduced in
China, IDNs can go one step further and contain non-
Latin characters before and after the dot. For example,
.
gTLDs and ccTLDs increasingly support IDNs, for example
26% of domains registered under .jp are already IDNs.1
Register and Manage IDNs with IDN Converter and Name
Console 2.0
In order to register IDNs, they first need to be converted
to “punycode”, which only contains ASCII
(Latin) characters. The Domain Name System (DNS) only
recognizes ASCII domain names. CSC’s IDN Converter
is a tool that converts your IDNs to punycode, so that
they can be registered. For example, bücher.de
becomes xn--bcher-kva.de. This punycode string can
then be registered as a domain name. CSC’s IDN
Converter can even be used to convert IDN.IDNs, such
as .
gTLDs and ccTLDs increasingly support IDNs and 26%
of domains registered under .jp are already IDNs.1
Any IDN can be registered and managed through Name
Console 2.0, our domain management portal.
