Problems

  • !
    Software version disclosed
    Nameservers · These nameservers report their software version via version.bind/version.server, which helps attackers find known vulnerabilities: evangeline.ns.cloudflare.com: "2026.10.2"; sid.ns.cloudflare.com: "2026.10.2". Hide or replace the version string.

  • !
    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

  • ✗
    Policy: none (monitoring only)
    DMARC · DMARC policy is set to 'none', which only monitors but doesn't protect against spoofing. Consider upgrading to 'quarantine' or ideally 'reject'.
    #4
  • !
    Not enabled
    DNSSEC · DNSSEC is not enabled for this domain. Consider enabling DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing attacks.
    #8
  • !
    Single MX host, no backup
    MX · Only one MX record found. For better email reliability, consider adding at least one backup MX server.
    #12
  • !
    Policy in testing mode
    TLS · With mode: testing, senders only report TLS problems (via TLS-RPT) and still deliver without TLS. Switch to mode: enforce once reports are clean.
