Identity Findings

No MX records found
The domain has no MX records and cannot receive email.
๐Ÿ’ก Publish MX records pointing to your mail server(s).
critical
No DKIM records found
No DKIM records were found for any common selector. Email may not be authenticated.
๐Ÿ’ก Configure DKIM signing and publish the public key at <selector>._domainkey.nwmutual.com
high
Nameserver unresponsive: ns3.northwesternmutual.com
The nameserver ns3.northwesternmutual.com is not responding on port 53.
๐Ÿ’ก Verify that ns3.northwesternmutual.com is properly configured and accessible.
high
No MTA-STS record found
Without MTA-STS, mail transport encryption cannot be enforced and is vulnerable to downgrade attacks.
๐Ÿ’ก Publish a _mta-sts TXT record and host a policy file at https://mta-sts.nwmutual.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt
medium
No CAA records found
No CAA records are configured. Any certificate authority can issue certificates for this domain.
๐Ÿ’ก Add CAA records to restrict certificate issuance. Example: 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"

Dependency Chains

DMARC Authentication Chain (SPF)
DMARC uses SPF to verify that emails come from authorized servers
SPF Record SPF record found and configured โ†’ DMARC Policy DMARC policy: reject
DMARC Authentication Chain (DKIM)
DMARC uses DKIM to verify that emails have not been tampered with
DKIM Signature DKIM signature missing โ†’ DMARC Policy DMARC policy: reject
โš ๏ธ DKIM signature is missing. DMARC relies on DKIM to verify email integrity and prevent tampering. Without DKIM, DMARC alignment will fail for cryptographic verification.
Enforced Encryption Chain
MTA-STS enforces TLS encryption to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks
TLS Support TLS not verified or unsupported โ†’ MTA-STS Policy MTA-STS not configured
โš ๏ธ TLS support could not be verified. MTA-STS requires TLS to enforce encrypted connections. Without TLS, MTA-STS cannot function.
Brand Identity Chain
BIMI displays your logo in email clients, but requires DMARC enforcement
DMARC Enforcement DMARC policy: reject โ†’ BIMI Record BIMI not configured
โš ๏ธ BIMI record is missing. Even with DMARC enforcement, you need to configure BIMI to display your brand logo in supported email clients.
TLS Monitoring Chain
TLS-RPT provides reports about TLS connection failures
TLS Support TLS not verified or unsupported โ†’ TLS-RPT Reporting TLS-RPT not configured
โš ๏ธ TLS support could not be verified. TLS-RPT reports on TLS connection failures, but without TLS support, there's nothing to monitor. You need working TLS encryption before TLS-RPT can provide value.
