This includes identifying critical missing or misconfigured DNS records (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), exposed services, and other potential attack vectors. This proactive scanning helps MSPs pinpoint compliance gaps related to email authentication before they impact deliverability.<\/li><li>Facilitating Remediation and Reporting: When a misconfiguration in DNS records is discovered, Guardz triggers actionable alerts and streamlined remediation playbooks. Additionally, tools like Prospecting Reports and Business Reviews, allow MSPs to assess client risk posture (including DNS-related risks), demonstrate the value delivered by achieving compliance, and track security improvements over time.<\/li><li>Inbound Email Security: Building on top of the new rules for bulk email, Guardz uses email authentication to verify all incoming emails using SPF, DKIM, and DMARC protocols to protect against spoofing and phishing attacks. Emails failing authentication will be flagged with a warning banner or sent to quarantine.<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h3><p>Microsoft\u2019s move isn\u2019t \u201cjust another update\u201d, it\u2019s a significant development in the email landscape. It signals that bulk email without strong authentication is no longer a viable option. By taking action now, MSPs can protect their clients from the negative consequences of undelivered emails, unsuccessful marketing campaigns, and damaged reputations.<\/p><p>Need help?
