Improved Deliverability DMARC is the essential first step to ensure your emails reach inboxes, significantly reducing the risk of rejection or being marked as spam.
Prevent Spoofing and Protect Your Reputation DMARC greatly reduces the risk of identity theft via your domain, such as fraudulent emails from addresses as [email protected]. As the most effective standard for preventing hackers and spammers from using your domain to send phishing attempts, promotional, or malicious emails, DMARC protects your brand. By significantly increasing the likelihood that only authorized emails are received or displayed, DMARC strengthens the trust that customers and email systems place in your domain, preserving your online reputation.
