DMARC is known for its proven usefulness in protecting your email domains from cyber threats. Publishing a DMARC record in the DNS allows the domain owner to know who is sending emails on behalf of their domain. Since it provides detailed information about the email channel, the domain owner gains full control over it. This way, you can ensure that your customers and email recipients receive emails sent on your behalf without failure.

Email spoofing attacks occur when a cybercriminal attempts to commit email fraud by forging someone else’s identity via email. Then, they use that forged sender address to try to convince a recipient to perform some action so that they can gain access to that recipient’s personal and private information. Usually, spoofers pretend to be a person or an organization that the recipient would trust.
