Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance
DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance) is an email authentication protocol that helps prevent email spoofing and phishing attacks by allowing domain owners to specify how their emails should be authenticated.
Channelnext is the DMARC technology provider in Dubai that enhances email security by enabling organizations to enforce policies for email authentication, including SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail), thereby reducing the risk of unauthorized email access and data breaches.

Features and
benefits of DMARC
Enhanced Email Authentication
DMARC enables organizations to specify authentication mechanisms for their email domains, ensuring that incoming emails undergo proper authentication before delivery. This helps reduce the risk of spoofing and phishing attacks by verifying the legitimacy of email senders.
Policy Enforcement
DMARC allows domain owners to specify policies for handling emails that fail authentication checks, such as quarantine or reject, helping to prevent malicious emails from reaching recipients’ inboxes.Â
Visibility and Reporting
DMARC provides detailed reports on email authentication results, including information on failed authentication attempts and sources of unauthorized emails, allowing organizations to monitor and analyze email traffic for potential security threats.Â
Compliance with Email Security Standards
DMARC helps organizations comply with email security standards and regulations by enforcing email authentication policies and preventing unauthorized email access, protecting sensitive information and maintaining regulatory compliance.Â
Protection Against Email Fraud
By preventing email spoofing and phishing attacks, DMARC helps protect organizations and their customers from email fraud, financial losses, reputational damage, and data breaches, enhancing trust and confidence in email communications.Â
Continuous Improvement
DMARC allows organizations to continuously refine and improve their email authentication policies based on feedback and insights from authentication reports, ensuring ongoing protection against evolving email threats.Â
