Summary

Phishing is a significant problem, and sometimes phishing campaigns use Cloudflare for free DNS services. To combat this issue, Cloudflare has developed a new method that causes malicious emails to disappear into the ether. The solution involves modifying the DMARC record of known phishing domains so that email clients reject all emails from those senders. This technique helps prevent successful phishing attempts and contributes to keeping people safe on the internet.
