DNS Security & Trust Posture
Risk Level: Low Risk
5 protocols configured, 4 not configured
Analysis Confidence
MODERATE
Resolver agreement is inconsistent for some protocols, limiting confidence. Data currency and system maturity are adequate.
Email Spoofing
Protected
Brand Impersonation

DNS Tampering

Certificate Control

What Requires Attention
No urgent actions detected. Domain security posture is well-maintained.
The BIG Questions
Can this domain be impersonated by email? No SPF and DMARC reject policy enforced
Can DNS itself be tampered with? No DNSSEC signed and validated, cryptographic chain of trust verified
Can this brand be convincingly faked? Unlikely DMARC reject policy blocks email spoofing (RFC 7489 §6.3) and BIMI with VMC provides verified brand identity in inboxes — email-based brand faking is effectively blocked; adding CAA records (RFC 8659) would further restrict certificate issuance for lookalike domains
Is mail transport encryption enforced? No No MTA-STS or DANE — mail transport encryption is opportunistic only
Is certificate issuance controlled? No No CAA records — any certificate authority may issue certificates for this domain
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
Domain Overview
Registrar get.gov (Registrant: REDACTED FOR PRIVACY)
Email Provider Microsoft 365
Web Hosting Unknown

Technical Findings

Email Authentication
Can this domain be impersonated by email? No — SPF and DMARC reject policy enforced
SPF (Sender Policy) Configured
DMARC (Policy) Configured Policy: reject
DKIM (Signatures) Configured
Mail Posture Strongly Protected
Mail Transport Security
Is mail transport encryption enforced? No — No MTA-STS or DANE — mail transport encryption is opportunistic only
MTA-STS Partial
DANE / TLSA Hosted Provider No MX records available — DANE check skipped
TLS-RPT (Reporting) Not Configured
Mail Transport Not Enforced Policy-assessed
DNS Security
Can DNS itself be tampered with? No — DNSSEC signed and validated, cryptographic chain of trust verified
DNSSEC Signed & Validated
DNSSEC fully configured and validated — AD (Authenticated Data) flag set by resolver 8.8.8.8 confirming cryptographic chain of trust from root to zone (RFC 4035 §3.2.3)
NS Delegation Healthy Managed DNS
Delegation Consistency 1 Issue
NS Fleet Health Healthy Diversity: Fair
DNSSEC Operations 1 Issue 2 keys, 0 sigs
Brand & Certificate Controls
Can this brand be convincingly faked? Unlikely — DMARC reject policy blocks email spoofing (RFC 7489 §6.3) and BIMI with VMC provides verified brand identity in inboxes — email-based brand faking is effectively blocked; adding CAA records (RFC 8659) would further restrict certificate issuance for lookalike domains
Is certificate issuance controlled? No — No CAA records — any certificate authority may issue certificates for this domain
BIMI (Brand Logo) Configured VMC Verified
CAA (Certificate) Open Any certificate authority may issue certificates
AI Surface Scanner Scanned
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
LLM Context File Not Found No llms.txt file detected
AI Crawler Governance Not Blocking No AI crawler restrictions found in robots.txt
Poisoning Indicators None Found No AI recommendation poisoning indicators detected
Hidden Prompt Artifacts None Found No hidden prompt artifacts detected
Public Exposure Clear No secrets detected in publicly accessible source
Priority Actions 2 total Achievable: Low Risk
High Lock Down SPF for No-Mail Domain

This domain has no MX records and appears to be a website-only domain. Publishing a strict SPF record explicitly declares that no servers are authorized to send email, preventing attackers from spoofing your domain.

Low Add CAA Records

CAA records specify which Certificate Authorities may issue certificates for your domain, reducing the risk of unauthorized certificate issuance.
