DMARC Advisor

Are you struggling to get your MTA-STS set up correctly? Well, you’re definitely not alone! In this article, we explain everything about MTA-STS.  MTA-STS is an inbound mail protocol designed to add a layer of encryption/security between sending and receiving mail servers. As most email security protocols, MTA-STS starts with a TXT entry in the DNS. We understand it’s all very technical and complicated. Do you need help? We offer Hosted MTA-STS.

Identifying fake emails can be challenging, but there are ways to spot them 🔎! Fake emails are commonly used in phishing attacks 🎣. They can trick you into giving away sensitive information, downloading malicious files, or granting unauthorised access to systems, which can lead to big problems for both you and your company 🏢. That's why it is essential for everyone to learn how to recognise fake emails! In this article, we will explore key indicators of fake emails and share some best practices to help you stay safe 👇. #BrandProtection #EmailAuthentication #DMARC #DMARCAdvisor

🇩🇪 Im Juni 2024 unternahm der Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) einen wichtigen Schritt zur Stärkung der Cybersicherheit. Mit PCI DSS 4.0.1. wurden neue, wichtige Anforderungen zur Bekämpfung von Phishing-Angriffen eingeführt 🥷. Ein wichtiger Schwerpunkt ist die Einrichtung von Prozessen und automatisierten Mechanismen zur Erkennung und zum Schutz der Mitarbeiter vor Phishing-Angriffen 🎣. DMARC wird als wichtiges Instrument zur Verhinderung von Phishing-Angriffen genannt. Dem können wir natürlich nur zustimmen 😉. Es ist wichtig zu wissen, dass diese Anforderung bis zum 31. März 2025 eine bewährte Praxis ist. Danach wird sie obligatorisch und muss bei einer PCI DSS-Bewertung vollständig berücksichtigt werden. Diese Übergangsfrist ermöglicht eine angemessene Planung und Umsetzung ✍️. Alles, was Sie über den PCI DSS 4.0.1. wissen müssen und wie Sie die Anforderungen erfüllen können, finden Sie in dem folgenden Artikel 👇. #DMARCAdvisor #DMARC #SPF #DKIM #BrandProtection #EmailAuthentication

Okay, enough with the sentimental stuff 😶🌫️. Back to the end of 2024: DKIM is essential in email security. But how does DKIM work? And what are the benefits of implementing DKIM?
