Executive's DNS Intelligence Brief
DNS Security & Trust Posture
Risk Level:
High Risk
4 protocols configured, 5 not configured
2 recommendations
Analysis Confidence
MODERATE
Some DNS data may be stale or incomplete, limiting confidence. Resolver agreement and system maturity are adequate.

What Requires Attention
Recommended
Publish an SPF record to authorize legitimate mail senders
Recommended
Upgrade DMARC policy from quarantine to reject (p=reject) for maximum spoofing protection
The BIG Questions
Can this domain be impersonated by email?
Partially
DMARC present but no SPF
Can DNS itself be tampered with?
Possible
DNSSEC signed (DNSKEY + DS present), but chain-of-trust validation was not confirmed on our resolver path (AD flag unset, RFC 4035 §3.2.3) — protection depends on the client using a validating resolver
Can this brand be convincingly faked?
Likely
DMARC quarantine flags but does not reject spoofed mail (RFC 7489 §6.3), and no BIMI brand verification — lookalike domains display identically in inboxes; CAA restricts certificate issuance (RFC 8659 §4) but visual brand faking remains open
Is mail transport encryption enforced?
No
No MTA-STS or DANE — mail transport encryption is opportunistic only
Is certificate issuance controlled?
Yes
CAA records restrict which certificate authorities may issue certificates
Does this domain publish AI agent instructions?
No
No llms.txt file detected — AI models have no structured instructions for this domain
Is AI crawling of our content controlled?
No
robots.txt present but does not block AI crawlers — content may be freely scraped
Has someone manipulated AI recommendations about us?
No
No indicators of AI recommendation manipulation found
Are there hidden AI prompts on our site?
No
No hidden prompt artifacts found in page source

Possible

DNSSEC
Signed & Validated
DNSSEC configured (DNSKEY + DS records present) but AD flag not set — resolver did not confirm chain of trust validation (RFC 4035 §3.2.3). This may indicate a broken chain or a non-validating resolver path.

Priority Actions 5 total Achievable: Moderate Risk
Critical
Publish SPF Record
Add an SPF record to authorize mail servers for this domain.
Medium
Upgrade DMARC to Reject
Your DMARC policy is set to quarantine. Upgrade to p=reject for maximum protection — reject instructs receivers to discard spoofed mail entirely rather than quarantining it.
Low
Add DANE/TLSA Records
DNSSEC is active — adding TLSA records enables DANE, which cryptographically binds your mail server certificates to DNS and prevents certificate-based MITM attacks.
Low
Add TLS-RPT Reporting
TLS-RPT (TLS Reporting) sends you reports about TLS connection failures when other servers try to deliver mail to your domain.
Low
Deploy MTA-STS
MTA-STS enforces TLS encryption for inbound mail delivery, preventing downgrade attacks on your mail transport.
