ICAE development-case domain. This domain appears in hardcoded ICAE development cases for one check — enterprise DNS classification. That single check is circular for this domain; all other findings are live measurements.

Priority Actions 4 total Achievable: STRONG
Medium Deploy MTA-STS policy

Publish an MTA-STS DNS record and host a policy file at https://mta-sts.yourdomain.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt. This tells senders to require TLS when delivering mail to your domain.

_mta-sts.yourdomain.com TXT "v=STSv1; id=20240101"
Medium Upgrade DMARC to reject policy

Upgrade your DMARC policy from p=quarantine to p=reject for maximum protection. Quarantine flags spoofed messages as spam; reject blocks them entirely.

v=DMARC1; p=reject; rua=mailto:dmarc-reports@yourdomain.com
Low Add TLS-RPT reporting

Publish a TLS-RPT DNS record to receive reports about TLS delivery failures to your domain.

_smtp._tls.yourdomain.com TXT "v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:tls-reports@yourdomain.com"
Low Enable DNSSEC

Enable DNSSEC at your DNS provider and add the DS record at your registrar. Many DNS providers (Cloudflare, Route 53, etc.) offer one-click DNSSEC activation.
