Integrated search of domains and trademarks in Portugal.
NIC Portugal is offering a new service that allows, at the same time, to verify if the word I want to register is already taken as a domain and/or trademark in the country, also detecting if that word is contained in an existing domain or trademark.
This new tool will help prevent conflicts with trademarks and domains in Portugal, allowing the registrant to have a clear and precise idea of the situation in which its identity is in at the moment of requesting a domain.
The service can be tested in:

Government and Banks will create “banco.ar”.
With the creation of the new extension “banco.ar” it is seek to hinder virtual fraud against users of Home Banking in Argentina.
The creation of this extension will give even more strength to the idea of creating new secure spaces in the virtual world through restricted domains that will allow more security for users.
Brazil already adopted this idea creating the extension “B.BR” that can only be used by financial entities that accredit a high level of security against virtual fraud.
Some weeks ago the national government and banks that operate in the country started to work on the creation of this extension oriented specifically for Argentinean Banking activities, with the objective of reducing virtual defraud cases, known as “phishing”.
“Phishing” is the capacity of duplicating a web site to make the visitor think that the web site is the original, instead of the forged. The idea of the mislead is to acquire confidential information of the user, like password, credit card or financial/banking information.
The criminals take advantage of the expansion of the Net, formed by millions of users, where the target never gets exhausted. However, phishing frauds have become more sophisticated and the criminals have developed “a threat thought for each user (thought for each user)”: The banking fraud is the most usual professional computing crime. The criminals attack the system in their weaker link: the client, or now even more, its personal computer.

His source tells him that “Verisign, Straat Investments, Affilias, Argus and Technology Services (GTS), among others, have all expressed interest in and will most likely place bids to be the administrator of the extension.”
Rick Latona points out “finally real competition to .com”. “After all, .com means (commercial) where .co traditionally means Company. In many ways .co makes more sense than .com for a company´s domain name”.
