.verisign domain extension

.verisign is a branded generic top-level domain owned and operated by VeriSign, Inc., the company best known for running the .com and .net registries. It was delegated in November 2015 and is intended for use by VeriSign itself, not for public registration. The domain is restricted to VeriSign and its affiliates, so you cannot buy a .verisign name. The registry runs on VeriSign's own infrastructure, with name servers like ac1.nstld.com and a WHOIS server at whois.nic.verisign. The company is based in Reston, Virginia. This TLD is part of a wave of brand-specific domains that let companies control their own namespace online.
