Hackers frequently try to mask malicious emails by pretending they came from a domain owned by a respectable business. In order to counteract this strategy, which is referred to as spoofing, numerous businesses have used two cybersecurity technologies, SPF and DKIM. They facilitate the process of identifying a fake email as harmful by the recipient.

EasyDMARC offers a cloud-based platform for DMARC implementation, which is a security standard that is being used more and more in conjunction with DKIM and SPF. If any of these technologies identify a fake email, DMARC can either block the message or route it to the spam folder of the intended recipient. Additionally, the standard notifies the operator of the authentic domain that the email was attempting to impersonate.

Since Google LLC and Yahoo Inc. have made DMARC mandatory for bulk senders, many businesses are using it. These are companies who send thousands of messages a day or more. A forthcoming modification to PCI DSS, a cybersecurity standard often employed in the payment card sector, will also compel many financial services firms to provide DMARC support.

A DNS server mechanism locates the servers that host the requested websites every time users enter URL in the browser. A corporation must change the DNS server for its website to implement DMARC, which can take a lot of human labor. Administrators can do the work faster and with less effort due to a console built within the EasyDMARC platform.

The platform also has a function that recognizes whether an email is blocked or sent to the recipient’s spam folder by an organization using DMARC. EasyDMARC claims that the program can identify if the reason for the email’s rejection was a spoof or an infrastructure problem. In the latter case, the platform gives technical details regarding the malicious sending activity to the impacted company.

EasyDMARC offers several supplementary tools along with its core DMARC platform for sale. It provides products that make it easier to adopt DKIM and SPF, the two email security standards that are necessary for DMARC to function. To help customers make sure their valid emails don’t wind up in recipients’ spam boxes, the company now offers a cloud solution.

Worldwide, over 45,000 organizations have embraced the tools. The company plans to use the investment round funds to improve its products and add more staff to expand its market presence. EasyDMARC also intends to expand the number of channel partners in its network.
