Locking mehanizam predstavlja zastitu od "transfera" domena.
izvod iz godaddy.com faq-a:
Citat:
Although your domains are already securely managed, this free option allows you to lock your domain at the Registry level. While in this state the domain registration cannot be transferred, nor can other aspects of the domain be altered (such as your domain's name servers, contact information, and ownership).
When a domain is locked you cannot modify the name servers or contact information. If you need to update name servers or other information, please unlock your domain name first. Selected domains will be unlocked within 15 minutes.
