One is an agency of the Iranian government and the two others appear on the Office of Foreign Assets Control\u2019s List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.<\/p>\n<p>Network Solutions locked and deprovisioned the three domains on May 14, 2013. It also placed a transfer lock on the domains. That means that the domain names will eventually expire and the organizations will not be able to renew them through Network Solutions. It seems they\u2019d have to re-register them when they expire.<\/p>\n<p>The three organizations are Valfajr 8th Shipping Line Co SSK, which was designated as an SDN in 2008 (vesc.net); the Iran Marine Industrial Company, which was designated as an SDN in 2012 (sadragroup.com); and the Islamic Republic of Iran Meteorological Organization (\u201cIRIMO\u201d), which Web.com believes is an Iranian government organization (irimet.net).<\/p>\n<p>Web.com noted that the registrations were prior to its acquisition of Network Solutions. It is implementing more controls to prevent similar registrations in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source:&nbsp;domainnamewire.com Registrants are agency of the Iranian government or Specially Designated Nationals.
