Ensuring that your business has the best email hosting available is important not only for security, but also for the development of your company. This is something we take into account here at Cloud Construct when providing advanced hosting for our clients.
There are many ways in which good email hosting packages can be provided for businesses but essentially each company will have a different need. However, every company’s email hosting should ensure security and functionality.
The basic purpose of email is to, obviously send and receive it! But deliverability can be hindered by not having the correct systems implemented. To ensure your business has the best chance of sending and receiving email (that is also secure), SPF, DKIM and DMARC systems should be implemented.
SPF is an email authentication system that can identify and prevent spam by detecting whether a message has been sent from your domain by an authorised mailer server. Essentially, SPF prevents the risk of outgoing messages that contain spam.
DKIM is slightly different to SPF in that it uses a digital signature that allows a company to take responsibility for the message. The digital signature is validated through a company’s Domain Name System (DNS) record. The DKIM system prevents the risk of incoming messages that contain spam.
DMARC is a record which is designed to offer receivers more control in deciding the integrity of an email through domain reputations. It can only be put into place if your sending domain has the SPF and DKIM systems published. DMARC offers many benefits including authentication reporting and phishing reduction.
Cloud Construct has the required knowledge and expertise to provide secure hosting for email that is tailored to the needs of your business. We understand that email plays an important role in acquiring and retaining customers or clients. So, the standard of your service should reflect the service standard you provide to your customers or clients.
