GoDaddy found to be updating DNS records without notifying you

Tom Dugdale-Shutts • June 3, 2024

Recently, we have been hearing that GoDaddy has been updating DNS records without notifying their customers. Take a quick read below where we'll be discussing what this means for businesses and the implications it can cause.

DNS records are crucial for maintaining an organisation's web presence as they dictate how your domain interacts with web traffic, emails and other services. Unauthorised changes can result in downtime, lost emails and increases the risk of security breaches. One Reddit user recently reported how they were left with no access to their website for an hour after GoDaddy changed their IP back to GoDaddy after they had moved it to a different supplier.

The main way to prevent this from happening would be to move your domain and DNS records to a more secure partner.
