DKIM is a mechanism for authenticating e-mails sent. If the domain where you have email boxes is maintained on Anycast netart.com DNS servers, DKIM configuration on CloudHosting and CloudMail servers is activated automatically. If you use other DNS servers, from now on you can do the DKIM configuration yourself using CloudHosting Panel.
Why do you need to use DKIM?
DKIM is a security feature that is activated at the DNS zone level of the domain from which emails are sent. It is currently one of the more effective methods of protecting against email spoofing, a practice in which some person modifies the headers of an email to make it appear to come from someone else. In this way, the sender tricks the recipient of the email and may try to trick the recipient out of confidential information. In a situation where a domain has active DKIM protection, unless a message sent from that address receives a valid signature, it may be marked as suspicious or even be rejected by the recipient’s server. With DKIM protection active, you should also use SPF and DMARC protection. The interaction of these three tools effectively increases the security of your e-mail communications.
Automatic DKIM configuration on netart.com servers
CloudHosting and CloudMail users who maintain their domains on netart.com’s Anycast DNS servers benefit from automatic configuration of SPF, DKIM and DMARC settings for their email. As a result, when you choose netart.com email, you are properly protected from the moment you set up your mailbox, and you can be sure that any attempts to impersonate your email address will be unsuccessful.
DKIM key activation in CloudHosting Panel
If for some reason you do not use DNS Anycast and maintain your domain on DNS servers at another company, you can still implement the DKIM mechanism for it. To do this, select the option to activate the DKIM key in CloudHosting Panel, then copy it and place it in your domain configuration.
Protect your email with netart.com
Lack of DKIM security means that fraudsters can try to impersonate your email address, so your company’s reputation and credibility can suffer. Literally any company, institution or individual can fall victim to fraudsters. Nowadays, when most transactions on the market are based on e-mail arrangements, the reliability of such correspondence is crucial. Therefore, don’t wait and take care of your reputation today by using the DKIM mechanism regardless of whether you maintain your domain on DNS Anycast at netart.com or on servers at another company.
