Why DMARC Matters for Your Business

Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) is an email authentication, policy, and reporting protocol designed to give domain owners the ability to protect their domain from unauthorised use, commonly known as email spoofing. The goal of DMARC is to improve and ensure email security by preventing cyber-criminals from sending messages with forged sender addresses from your domain.

Email communication remains critical to business. However, it is a primary vector for phishing attacks, malware distribution, and brand impersonation. DMARC addresses these challenges by allowing domain owners to:

  • Authenticate Emails: DMARC uses SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) to verify that an email message has indeed been sent from the domain it claims to be from.
  • Define Email Handling Policies: Domain owners can instruct email providers on how to handle emails that don't pass DMARC authentication (e.g., reject the message, quarantine it, or let it pass with a report).
  • Receive Reports: DMARC provides insights into all the emails sent from your domain, including those that fail DMARC checks. These reports are crucial for understanding and improving your email security posture.

The Importance of DMARC for MSPs, IT Teams, and Digital Agencies

For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), IT teams, and digital agencies managing multiple domains, implementing and maintaining DMARC can seem daunting. Yet, the benefits far outweigh the effort:

  • Protect Your Brand and Clients: By preventing unauthorised use of your email domains, DMARC helps safeguard your brand's integrity and your client's trust.
  • Enhance Email Deliverability: Emails that pass DMARC authentication are more likely to be delivered to the recipient's inbox, ensuring critical communications are received.
  • Mitigate Security Risks: Reducing the risk of phishing and spoofing attacks protects your organization and its clients from potential financial and data losses.
