Product MailChannels Enhances Email Security with DNSSEC Implementation By MailChannels | 2 minute read MailChannels is excited to announce that we have implemented DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) on the primary domain associated with our email delivery service, mailchannels.net. This milestone is a major leap forward in our ongoing commitment to deliver the most secure and reliable email services to our clients. What is DNSSEC? DNSSEC is a vital security protocol that adds a robust layer of protection to the Domain Name System, which is the backbone of internet communications. By digitally signing DNS records, DNSSEC prevents malicious actors from impersonating or tampering with our domain. This security measure is crucial for maintaining the integrity and trustworthiness of our email delivery services. Benefits of DNSSEC for Our Clients Enhanced Security: DNSSEC blocks DNS spoofing and cache poisoning—common tactics used in cyber attacks like email interception and phishing. This added layer of validation ensures that emails sent through MailChannels reach their intended recipients securely, without interference. Increased Trust: The integrity of our email infrastructure is critical, especially for businesses that depend on email for essential communications. With DNSSEC, both senders and recipients are assured of the security and reliability of their email interactions, bolstering trust in our services. Improved Deliverability: Establishing our domain’s security reputation positively affects email deliverability. DNSSEC demonstrates our dedication to security, reducing the chances of our emails being marked as spam or getting rejected by recipient servers. Future-Proofing Our Services: The digital threat landscape is ever-changing, with new challenges and security standards continually emerging. By adopting DNSSEC early, we’re not just keeping pace with current standards but also preparing for future developments. This proactive approach ensures that our infrastructure remains resilient and dependable for all our clients.
