Tackling Email Spoofing and Phishing
Cloudflare has introduced a new tool called the Email Security DNS Wizard to tackle email spoofing and phishing, as well as improve email deliverability. The wizard helps users create DNS records that prevent others from sending malicious emails on behalf of their domain. It also warns users about insecure DNS configurations and provides recommendations for fixing them. Initially rolled out to Free plan users, the feature will be made available to Pro, Business, and Enterprise customers over the next weeks. The tool aims to increase adoption of SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records, which are crucial for securing domains against email spoofing and phishing attacks.
