Well, they do NOT use something aka: amazon.com
Cause I kind of bet that I would have found it with my (implicit)
focus on ID-NITS. ALthough I see that there is one coccurance
that I missed, namely hr.corp.com

Instead they use what you all "company names". 
We may wonder if these is indeed true (to the letter, yes, but
in spirit ?? I wonder). I think they want to show end-user
understandable situations here. ANd it seem what they are
using makes a lot of sense to try and explain the
different services. more below

I really wonder if this is as clear.
But I will check with the WG.
