3 resources · Research-based guidance

Know where each service is controlled.

Your domain registrar, DNS provider, website host and email provider may be different companies. These guides explain their roles and show how to connect a website without accidentally breaking other services. Ownership and recovery details are as important as the technical records.

HTTPS guidance focuses on certificate coverage, validation and renewal. A secure connection is important, but it does not prove a company's honesty or remove application vulnerabilities. Use these resources alongside the wider security and backup guides.
