Email Security Checker

Analyze your domain's email authentication configuration. Get a professional report with full diagnostic.

Verifies SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX records, DANE/TLSA, and spoofing resistance.

What do we check?

Your report covers 6 key areas of your domain's email security configuration.

  • We verify the SPF record that defines which servers are authorized to send email on behalf of your domain.
  • We look for DKIM records that cryptographically sign outgoing emails to verify their authenticity.
  • We evaluate the DMARC policy that tells receiving servers how to handle unauthenticated emails.
  • We verify MX records, mail server redundancy, and whether known providers are used.
  • We check for DANE/TLSA records that add an extra layer of TLS authentication to email.
  • We calculate a combined SPF, DKIM, and DMARC score to evaluate how vulnerable your domain is to spoofing.

How does it work?

  1. Enter your domain

    Provide the domain you want to check along with your name and email to receive the report.

  2. DNS query

    We query your domain's DNS records to obtain SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, and TLSA records.

  3. Full analysis

    We evaluate each authentication mechanism, enforcement policy, and spoofing resistance.

  4. Get your report

    Within seconds you'll receive a PDF in your email with scores, detailed findings, and prioritized recommendations.

Frequently Asked Questions

An email security analysis checks 6 DNS record areas: SPF (which servers can send email), DKIM (cryptographic signatures), DMARC (authentication policy and reporting), MX records (mail servers and redundancy), DANE/TLSA (TLS authentication for SMTP), and overall spoofing resistance.
