Comment:
“That's one small step for Directi, one giant leap for a safer Internet”.
On behalf of the online community we thank Bhavin Turakhia, CEO and Directi, for their prompt actions, to our findings. These examples are perhaps only a small in comparison to the overall problem we face, but are still significant victories in the fight against cyber crime and the head on approach of HostExploit's 'Atrivo - Cyber Crime USA' report.
We all hope this leads to even greater actions and security focus by the Hosting and Registrar community?
