xloTz DMARC, DKIM and SPF Analyzer

Introduction 

Brand protection and Business Email Compromise protection are essential for maintaining a positive brand image, ensuring trust among customers, and safeguarding intellectual property from misuse or misrepresentation. By combining the strength of “Sender Policy framework (SPF) and Domain key identified Email (DKIM)” to handle CEO fraud and brand protection, xIoTz DMARC Analyzer improves email security posture (BEC).

DMARC Analyzer

xIoTz DMARC Analyzer particularly improves the email security posture. And ensures that legitimate emails sent from their domain are not blocked or marked as spam by recipient email systems.

This cutting-edge technology not only particularly enhances your email security posture but also acts as a shield against CEO Fraud and phishing attempts.

DKIM Analyzer

With xIoTz XOC domain owners analyze DKIM signatures on their outgoing messages and identify any issues with their DKIM configuration. DKIM Analyzer especially prevents email spoofing using Domain Key Identification verification and validation.

SPF Analyzer

Analyze the SPF records on the owner’s domain and identify any issues with their SPF configuration. This can be specifically done by identifying domain’s SPF policy affecting email deliverability due to failed SPF checks.
