WHY DO YOU NEED DMARC?
Domain-based Message Authentication Reporting and Conformance or DMARC is a highly effective email authentication protocol that helps mitigate email-based cyber threats such as phishing and spoofing attacks by verifying whether an email is from a legitimate or malicious source.
Cybercriminals often pose as senior executives of trusted organizations to send out spoofed emails to employees instigating money transfers. Impersonation attacks like these are aimed at gathering sensitive information from company partners, employees, and customers, leading to legal risks, hampered brand image, and financial and data loss for the impersonated organization.
