Transferring a domain from one registrar company to another normally involves the use of a special authorization code, which different registrar companies call an EPP authorization code, a domain password or an AuthInfo code. This code can be used as a safety mechanism against unsolicited transfers with all generic and with most country-code extensions. The code can be obtained only by the owner of the specific domain name and is provided by the current domain registrar company. It must be given to the new domain registrar company because the transfer cannot be started without it. The code is case-sensitive and normally comprises of digits and special symbols, so as to prevent unauthenticated persons from cracking it. Some domain registrars even alter the codes of domain names registered through them after a given period of time for even greater safety.
