    Glue differs from the zone
    Delegation · The addresses at the parent (glue) differ from the addresses in the zone: ns10.techtarget.com (glue 2600:180a:1001::1, 96.45.80.1, zone 96.45.80.1); ns11.techtarget.com (glue 2600:180b:2001::1, 46.31.236.1, zone 46.31.236.1); ns12.techtarget.com (glue 2600:180c:3001::1, 43.247.170.1, zone 43.247.170.1); ns13.techtarget.com (glue 2600:180a:4001::1, 96.45.81.1, zone 96.45.81.1); ns14.techtarget.com (glue 2600:180b:5001::1, 46.31.237.1, zone 46.31.237.1); ns15.techtarget.com (glue 2600:180c:6001::1, 43.247.171.1, zone 43.247.171.1). Update the glue at your registrar.

    No IPv6
    Delegation · None of the nameservers has an IPv6 address, so IPv6-only resolvers can't reach them.
    #13
  • !
    Unusual SOA timers
    SOA · negative caching TTL (minimum) 3m is outside 5m–1d (RFC 2308 recommends 1–3 hours). Current values: refresh 12h, retry 1h, expire 14d, negative TTL 3m.
    #23
  • !
    Not signed
    DNSSEC · The zone is not signed with DNSSEC, so answers can be spoofed. Enable DNSSEC at your DNS provider and publish the DS record at your registrar.

Problems

  • !
    8 of 10 DNS lookups, with problems
    SPF · SPF record needs 8 DNS lookups (limit is 10). Problems found: include:relays.gooddata.com does not exist or has no records.

  • !
    Policy: quarantine
    DMARC · DMARC policy is set to 'quarantine'. Consider upgrading to 'reject' for stronger protection once you've verified legitimate emails are passing authentication.
    #4
  • !
    Not enabled
    DNSSEC · DNSSEC is not enabled for this domain. Consider enabling DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing attacks.

    Hosts without IPv6
    MX · The following MX hosts could not be resolved to IPv6 addresses: mx0a-00051b01.pphosted.com, mx0b-00051b01.pphosted.com
    #11

    1024-bit DKIM key
    DKIM · 1024-bit RSA keys are the minimum and are considered weak today: selector1 (1024 bits). Rotate to a 2048-bit key.
    #23
  • !
    1 void lookup
    SPF · 1 include/redirect target does not exist or has no records (limit is 2). This usually is a stale include; remove it.
    #26
  • !
    Not configured
    TLS · MTA-STS is not configured, so other mail servers fall back to unencrypted delivery when TLS fails or is stripped by an attacker. Publish a _mta-sts TXT record and a policy at https://mta-sts.<domain>/.well-known/mta-sts.txt.
