Protect your domain from email impersonation.
Your business domain is part of your identity. Fifosys helps organisations implement and manage DMARC, strengthen email authentication and reduce the risk of criminals sending fraudulent messages that appear to come from your business.
Someone shouldn't be able to impersonate your business simply because they know your email domain.
Email is built on trust. When customers, suppliers and colleagues see a familiar address, they're more likely to believe the message is genuine. Attackers exploit that trust by attempting to send messages that appear to originate from legitimate organisations.
Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance (DMARC) is an email authentication standard that helps domain owners control how receiving mail systems handle messages that fail authentication checks.
Working alongside SPF and DKIM, DMARC helps receiving systems distinguish authorised email from certain forms of domain spoofing. It also provides reporting that can reveal which services are sending email using your domain.
Fifosys helps businesses move from limited visibility to a managed DMARC policy, reducing opportunities for direct domain impersonation while protecting legitimate email delivery.
Your domain may be sending more email than you realise.
Modern businesses rely on multiple platforms to send messages. Without a clear view of those services, enforcing email authentication can be more complicated than publishing a DNS record.
Domain spoofing
Attackers attempt to send fraudulent messages that appear to come directly from your organisation's domain.
Unknown sending services
Marketing platforms, finance systems and third-party applications may send email on your behalf without central oversight.
Authentication misconfiguration
Incorrect SPF, DKIM or DMARC settings can prevent legitimate messages from authenticating correctly.
Policies that never progress
Organisations may publish a monitoring-only DMARC policy but never move towards enforcement, leaving spoofed messages without a requested rejection policy.
Six elements of effective domain protection.
DMARC works best as a managed process that combines authentication, visibility, policy enforcement and ongoing maintenance.
SPF authentication
Identify authorised sending infrastructure through your domain's Sender Policy Framework configuration.
DKIM signatures
Use cryptographic signatures to help receiving systems verify that messages were signed by an authorised domain.
Domain alignment
Check that authenticated SPF or DKIM domains align with the domain shown in the visible From address.
DMARC reporting
Gain visibility into authentication results and identify legitimate, misconfigured and potentially unauthorised sending sources.
Policy enforcement
Progress towards quarantine or reject policies when legitimate sending services are correctly configured.
Ongoing monitoring
Review authentication performance as new applications, suppliers and sending services are introduced.
Move towards enforcement without disrupting legitimate email.
DMARC implementation isn't simply a case of switching on a policy. We help identify legitimate senders, correct authentication issues and move towards stronger protection in a controlled way.
Explore our security frameworkReview your domains and sending services
Identify the domains used by your organisation and review known email platforms, applications and third-party senders.
Establish authentication visibility
Review SPF and DKIM configurations, introduce DMARC reporting where appropriate and analyse sending activity.
Correct legitimate sending configurations
Work through authentication failures and improve domain alignment for approved systems and suppliers.
Introduce stronger DMARC policies
Progress towards quarantine and reject policies when reporting and testing support a controlled change.
Keep protection aligned with your environment
Review reporting, investigate new senders and update configurations as the organisation changes.
A DMARC record is a starting point. The policy behind it determines what protection you request.
DMARC supports three policy settings. A monitoring policy, p=none, requests no special handling of messages that fail DMARC but enables reporting. This helps organisations understand authentication performance before introducing stricter controls.
A p=quarantine policy asks participating receiving systems to treat failing messages as suspicious, often by placing them in a spam or quarantine folder.
A p=reject policy requests that receiving systems reject messages that fail DMARC authentication. This is generally the strongest of the three policy settings for reducing direct spoofing of the protected domain.
Receiving systems retain control over their final handling decisions, and DMARC doesn't prevent every form of impersonation. Lookalike domains and compromised legitimate accounts still require other security measures.
The right approach is to establish visibility, resolve legitimate authentication failures and progress towards enforcement without unnecessarily interrupting business email.
