THE SENDMARC WAY

Cyber compliance, risk and governance is an ongoing activity not a once off

Getting your email environment to secure status

We work hand in hand and side by side with our customers to ensure their environment is correctly configured and our product properly implemented.

We can get customers to a state where all illegitimate emails from fraudsters using their name are rejected, and only real, authenticated emails using the company name hit an inbox in 90 days.

Managing your email environment

The volume of criminals engaging in cybercrime using emails continues to grow. This, together with the abundance of new cloud email services and leveraging of third party specialists for outsourcing activities (eg. marketing, IT ticketing, HR) means that a company’s email real estate is never static.

The email ecosystem requires constant and ongoing monitoring and updating to stop security threats and to ensure there is no disruption to the deliverability of genuine email.

We manage your email environment to ensure you are always at the highest level of DMARC compliance, minimising risk and ensuring company-wide adherence to your governance requirements.

Crisis response, troubleshooting and stopping your attack

We are experts at speedily identifying your issues and react with the required urgency to minimise damage to your business.

We troubleshoot and identify the measures that need to be taken to ensure that going forward your email is not hijacked for fraudulent purposes and you are protected from future financial, operational, and reputational risks.

Training to know our platform

We provide training for our customers, so they become familiar with our platform, know how to access information and intelligence about their environment, and are able to configure and manage their own DMARC enforcement policy.

SIX STEPS

To protection and control of your name

01

Publishing DMARC records

Our first step is adding DMARC records to the DNS, and then publishing these. This ensures that every time an email service receives a mail using your name, a report is sent to Sendmarc, allowing us to see who is using your domain – whether legitimate or not.

02

Configuring DNS (Domain Name System)

We then migrate the management of SPF and DKIM to the Sendmarc platform – ensuring that these critical authentication mechanisms are properly managed and enabling the best email deliverability possible for your legitimate senders.

03

Analysing reporting

Now that we’ve enabled reporting, and we’re able make changes to the relevant configurations, it’s time to analyze the data. This gives us insight into how your email name is being used – both legitimately and illegitimately. This intelligence lets us identify your risk and exposure to email fraud so we can put in place the necessary measures to stop the abuse of your name by criminals as well as eliminate the associated financial, operational and reputational headaches.

04

Fortifying your email security

To implement and activate DMARC we configure all approved services sending email using your name. This ensures the DMARC policy is applied across your entire email environment, including all third parties that send emails on your behalf, and that only legitimate emails reach an inbox and the best email deliverability rates are achieved.

05

Achieve a state of full protection

The correct configuration of your entire email environment, reaching a state where all illegitimate emails are stopped from reaching an inbox and only legitimate emails are delivered is guaranteed within 90 days.

06

Actively defending and protecting your enviroment

The continually increasing volume of fraudulent email activities combined with the growing adoption of cloud services for email means that DMARC cannot be a one-time configuration project, but rather requires the ongoing monitoring and updating of the email environment to achieve the highest and safest states of compliance and deliverability.
