Problems

  • !
    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.
    #27
  • !
    Very low TTLs
    Records · These records have a TTL below 5m, causing extra queries and slower lookups: A (42s). Low TTLs are useful just before a planned change. The NS TTL at the parent is 2d and in the zone 1h; resolvers may use either.

Problems

  • ✗
    No 'all' mechanism
    SPF · SPF record doesn't have an 'all' mechanism. Add -all or ~all at the end of your SPF record.
    #3
  • ✗
    No DMARC record
    DMARC · No DMARC record was found for this domain. DMARC is essential for preventing email spoofing. Add a DMARC record with p=reject or at least p=quarantine.
    #5
  • ✗
    No DKIM keys published
    DKIM · _domainkey.threatpost.com does not exist (NXDOMAIN), so no DKIM keys are published. DKIM helps prevent email spoofing. Configure DKIM with your email service provider.
    #7
  • ✗
    Syntax errors
    SPF · Receivers reject the whole SPF record (permerror) because of: unknown mechanism "-all,3600".
    #25
  • !
    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
  • !
    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.
