  • Case Study Transfer of Domain Name Registered
    YOUR PARTNER FOR GLOBAL GROWTH CASE STUDY TRANSFER OF DOMAIN NAME REGISTERED WITH A DORMANT REGISTRAR BACKGROUND OF THE CASE Our client had registered their website domain name with Domain Name Registrar - Net4 Network Services Limited (Net4), with latest renewal for 3 years done in 2018. Our client wanted to transfer their domain from Net4 to another registrar to facilitate email migration. Upon logging onto their Net4 account, our client realised that no option was provided by Net4 for initiating transfer and few other important details necessary for email migration were also missing. This unusual omission prompted them to seek Octagona India’s assistance for completing domain transfer. HOW DID OCTAGONA INDIA HELP? Our team undertook the following actions: The very first step was to establish contact with Net4. We called their help line and office numbers but most calls did not go through and the ones which did, went unanswered. We also raised complaints and sent several emails. On not receiving any response on phone or email our team then decided to conduct physical due diligence. We visited Delhi, Noida and Pune Office of Net4 to establish contact. At Delhi and Noida, we were informed by the security guard that Net4 offices were taken over and sealed by a bank in India on account of Net4’s failure to pay their loan. The Pune office was not in existence. Understanding the complexity of the problem, we undertook preliminary inspection of Net4’s records present on the website of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and noted that current status of the Company was ‘Under process of Striking-off’.

  • China's Internet Governance: a New Conceptualization of the Cybersovereignty Model
    “China’s Internet Governance: A New Conceptualization of the Cybersovereignty Model” Qiang Zhang Duke University Fall 2018 Political Science Undergraduate Honors Thesis Advisors: Professor Ellen Mickiewicz and Michael Munger Abstract In recent years, China’s Internet governance regime has been subject to increasing literature scrutiny and attention. A rising superpower, China’s vision for the Internet on domestic and international stages has far-reaching implications for the future cyber world order. While traditional theories of governance typically categorize China as a cyber-sovereign nation, I argue that China’s approach is more nuanced and can better be considered under a “flexible” cyber-sovereignty model. Through both a historical and case-study analysis, I suggest that this new model for China better considers the effects of new, rising capital forces—Chinese internet corporations—and explains the dynamic mix of rejection and assimilation into the existing regime that characterizes China’s current Internet governance strategy. Ultimately, this new model can help us conceptualize China’s vision and strategy for Internet governance, which can have far-ranging implications for the future of cyberspace and the Internet as we know it. Many thanks to Dr. Matthew Stephens for sparking my interest in this topic during my internship with WZB in Berlin; to Dr. Mickiewicz for cultivating my growth and teaching me invaluable knowledge about research, writing, and critical thinking; to Dr. Munger for his guidance, patience, and support; to Ms. Pierce, Mr. Hysjulien and the Political Science faculty and staff; to the BN Duke Scholarship Program for funding my trip to China; and lastly to my parents and friends for supporting me through this process.
