DMARC TempError- What is it and how can this issue be resolved?
by DuoCircle
DMARC TempErrors are the different types of authentication issues in DKIM and SPF policies. These are temporary in nature. Fixing them is important, or they may lead to DMARC failure for your legitimate emails. DMARC is one of the most significant email authentication policies, which enables domain owners to instruct recipient email servers about emails that fail SPF and DKIM checks. A TempError can easily disrupt this process, thereby hampering email authentication and deliverability.

How do you achieve SPF alignment to enhance email security and deliverability?

SPF alignment is one of those behind-the-scenes checks that decides whether your emails will land in the recipients’ inboxes or end up in their spam folders.

How do threat actors use SPF policies in BEC attacks?
by DuoCircle
Business email compromise, or BEC, is a sophisticated phishing attack conducted primarily through a combination of social engineering and deception to get access to sensitive data, files, systems, networks, etc. It’s attempted mainly by impersonating a company’s C-suite, instructing executives to share data, or authorizing fraudulent wire transfers. For example- an executive receiving an email from a scammer pretending to be their boss, urgently asking them to buy gift cards and sharing the codes. They think it’s real, but it’s actually a trick to steal money!
