DMARC and DKIM
DMARC and DKIM
At MijnHostingPartner.nl we always try to put the safety of all services first. Security in email is an important item where a lot of abuse and SPAM is involved. Therefore standards and extra controls are in place to combat this abuse.
The three standards used for this are DMARC DKIM and SPF. Since last week we have a DMARC certificate active on all our domains hosted by MijnHostingPartner.nl.
DKIM
A DKIM certificate provides an additional signature or handshake when sending mail. Based on the key a check is done whether the email message is actually real.
In our experience, this measure already excludes a lot in the field. A DKIM certificate is easily activated in one go in the control panel under the mail domain. After this it will automatically add it to the DNS zone records and the webmail.
