Unlock Email Security: Strengthen Your Domain with DMARC

DMARC

(Domain-Based Message Authentication, Reporitng And Conformance)

DMARC is one of the best and most trusted email authentication protocol developed for the identification of email authenticity or legitimacy. It works in the unification of SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (Domain Keys Identified Mail).
DMARC reports allow businesses to gain transparency and keep an eye on unlawful use of their domain names. DMARC is the right and easy to understand way for domain owners to inform email recipients that the email sent is scam-free and meant for them only.
Email settings & DMARC record for the organization needs to be set up correctly for a VMC logo to display correctly!

DMARC Uses:

SPF (Sender Policy Framework) – whitelist of email senders
DKIM (Domain Keys Identified Mail) – uses pair of public & private cryptographic keys

DMARC Benefits:

Block Email Phishing in Real Time

Email authentication policies identify valid corporate email & block the remaining corporate & consumer phishing. Our customers control whether identifiers phishing & fraudulent email is sent to an end user’s spam box, or not delivered at all.

Protect Brand Reputation

Organizations that are subject to regular email spoofing suffer considerable reputational damage. Phishing scams often attract negative press, with liability often attributed to the organization which has been impersonated.

Improve Email Deliverability

An email provider may well refuse to deliver an email to a user’s inbox if it does not have an SPF and/or DKIM signature, or if the user has previously marked the sender’s emails as “junk”. With DMARC, emails are reliably authenticated, thereby improving deliverability of legitimate emails to a user’s inbox.

Improve Marketing Campaign Open Rate

Use DMARC to identify and whitelist marketing, billing, and customer service email senders. Tune email security policies to increase third party deliverability.

WITHOUT DMARC PROBLEM: Anyone can spoof your email!

You can’t stop anyone from phishing with your domain!
You don’t know who’s sending it!
You don’t know what they are sending!
You don’t know why your own deliverability is poor!

HOW DMARC WORKS?

A DNS TXT record
Tells receiving email servers how to handle messages that don’t authenticate with SPF or DKIM
3 stages of DMARC policy:
p=none; p=quarantine; p=reject DMARC enforced
