Email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
Email authentication
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are DNS-published controls that reduce direct domain spoofing in email. Investigators read TXT records and alignment results to grade spoofability.
- SPF — which IPs may send for a domain
- DKIM — cryptographic message signatures
- DMARC — policy + alignment (reject/quarantine/none)
Umbra’s dns_email_auth collector deep-dives these records for a domain seed.
