Identity Findings

No SPF record found
The domain has no SPF record, allowing anyone to send email as this domain.
💡 Publish an SPF TXT record (e.g. "v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com -all").
critical
No DMARC record found
The domain has no DMARC record, providing no policy for handling unauthenticated email.
💡 Publish a DMARC TXT record at _dmarc.shifen.com (e.g. "v=DMARC1; p=reject; rua=mailto:dmarc@shifen.com").
critical
No NS records found
No nameserver records could be retrieved for this domain.
💡 Ensure NS records are properly configured at your registrar and in your zone file.
critical
Does not meet bulk sender requirements
Google and Yahoo require all bulk senders to have SPF+DKIM, DMARC, and one-click unsubscribe. Issues: Neither SPF nor DKIM is configured (at least one required); No DMARC record published (required since Feb 2024); SPF not published (recommended alongside DKIM)
💡 Publish SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records. Implement RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe for marketing mail.
high
FCrDNS mismatch: 202.108.250.229 → hotswap.baidu.com does not resolve back
PTR for 202.108.250.229 is hotswap.baidu.com, but hotswap.baidu.com does not resolve back to 202.108.250.229.
💡 Ensure the PTR hostname resolves back to the original IP address.
high
Cannot check DNS consistency — no NS records
No nameserver records could be retrieved for consistency checking.
💡 Ensure NS records are properly configured.
high
No DKIM records found
No DKIM records were found after probing 56 common selectors. The domain may use a custom selector not discoverable via external scan.
💡 Configure DKIM signing and publish the public key at <selector>._domainkey.shifen.com
medium
No MTA-STS record found
Without MTA-STS, mail transport encryption cannot be enforced and is vulnerable to downgrade attacks.
💡 Publish a _mta-sts TXT record and host a policy file at https://mta-sts.shifen.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt
medium
STARTTLS without MTA-STS or DANE protection
STARTTLS alone is vulnerable to downgrade attacks. Neither MTA-STS nor DANE is configured to enforce encryption.
💡 Deploy MTA-STS and/or DANE to protect against STARTTLS stripping attacks.
medium
SOA MNAME is not authoritative
The primary nameserver (MNAME) 'dns.shifen.com' does not return authoritative answers.
💡 Update the MNAME field to point to an authoritative nameserver for this zone.
medium
No CAA records found
No CAA records are configured. Any certificate authority can issue certificates for this domain.
💡 Add CAA records to restrict certificate issuance. Example: 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"
medium
No TLS-RPT record found
Without TLS-RPT, you will not receive reports about TLS negotiation failures.
💡 Publish a _smtp._tls TXT record (e.g. "v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:tls-reports@shifen.com").
low
ARC support not detected
No evidence of ARC (Authenticated Received Chain) support on MX servers. Forwarded messages may lose authentication.
💡 Consider enabling ARC signing on your mail servers to preserve authentication through forwarding.
low
DKIM cryptographic configuration is compliant
No RFC 8301 compliance issues detected in DKIM key configuration.
pass
MX records are valid
All MX records are properly configured.
pass
SMTP security checks passed
No open relay, VRFY/EXPN, or banner disclosure issues detected.
pass
SMTP RFC 5321 compliance checks passed

pass
DKIM2 not detected
No DKIM key record with v=2 was found across common selectors. DKIM2 is an emerging standard and not yet widely deployed.
informational
REQUIRETLS not advertised
The primary MX does not advertise REQUIRETLS (RFC 8689). This is an emerging standard — MTA-STS and DANE provide adequate TLS enforcement for most deployments.
informational
No DANE/TLSA records found
DANE is not configured for any MX server. This is optional but provides strong certificate binding.
informational
No BIMI record found
BIMI is not configured. Your brand logo will not display in supporting email clients.
informational
Domain is IPv4-only
No AAAA records found for the domain, MX servers, or nameservers. The domain operates on IPv4 only.
informational
RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe assessment
No DKIM signing detected. RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe requires DKIM-signed List-Unsubscribe headers.
informational
MX IP network diversity
All MX IPs are in the same /16 network. Consider diversifying across networks for resilience.
informational
SOA record parameters
Serial: 2013120469, Refresh: 300s, Retry: 300s, Expire: 2592000s, Min TTL: 7200s

Attack Surface Findings

Domain enumerability: medium
The domain has moderate enumerability. CT logs and DNS records reveal significant information about the domain structure.
💡 Restrict zone transfers, use NSEC3 instead of NSEC, consider wildcard certificates to reduce CT log exposure, and implement rate limiting on DNS queries.
medium
DNSSEC is not enabled
No DNSKEY or DS records were found. DNS responses are not cryptographically authenticated.
💡 Enable DNSSEC by generating DNSKEY records and publishing DS records at the registrar.
medium
DNS ANY query returns 8 record(s)
The DNS server responds to ANY queries with 8 record(s). The low record count limits amplification risk, but ANY responses still aid reconnaissance.
💡 Configure the DNS server to refuse or minimize ANY query responses per RFC 8482.
low
No subdomain takeover risks detected
All checked subdomains have valid, responsive targets.
pass
All MX records resolve correctly
No dangling MX records detected — all MX hostnames resolve to valid IP addresses.
pass
Explicit MX records present
The domain has explicit MX records — no implicit A-record fallback delivery.
pass
No internal information leakage detected
No non-routable IP addresses or internal references were found in public DNS records.
pass
No email autodiscovery endpoints detected
No Microsoft Autodiscover, Mozilla Autoconfig, or email SRV records were found.
pass
2 subdomain(s) discovered for shifen.com
Subdomains were enumerated via Certificate Transparency logs, DNS wordlist brute-forcing, and DNS record analysis.
informational
0 certificate(s) found in CT logs
Certificate Transparency logs contain 0 certificate(s) for shifen.com and its subdomains. Each certificate reveals subdomain names.

Dependency Chains

DMARC Authentication Chain (SPF)
DMARC uses SPF to verify that emails come from authorized servers
SPF Record SPF record missing DMARC Policy DMARC policy missing
⚠️ SPF record is missing. DMARC relies on SPF to verify sender authorization. Without SPF, DMARC alignment will fail, reducing email deliverability and brand protection.
DMARC Authentication Chain (DKIM)
DMARC uses DKIM to verify that emails have not been tampered with
DKIM Signature DKIM signature missing DMARC Policy DMARC policy missing
⚠️ DKIM signature is missing. DMARC relies on DKIM to verify email integrity and prevent tampering. Without DKIM, DMARC alignment will fail for cryptographic verification.
Mail Server Identity: m1.shifen.com
PTR record proves mail server legitimacy
MX: m1.shifen.com Mail server at 202.108.250.229 PTR Record Reverse DNS: hotswap.baidu.com
Mail Server Reputation: m1.shifen.com
RBL check ensures server is not blacklisted
MX: m1.shifen.com Mail server at 202.108.250.229 RBL Status Not blacklisted
Enforced Encryption Chain
MTA-STS enforces TLS encryption to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks
TLS Support TLS not verified or unsupported MTA-STS Policy MTA-STS not configured
⚠️ 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 not enforced (p=none or missing) BIMI Record BIMI not configured
⚠️ DMARC is not enforced. BIMI requires a DMARC policy of "quarantine" or "reject" to prove you have strong email authentication. Without enforcement, email clients will not display your logo.
TLS Monitoring Chain
TLS-RPT provides reports about TLS connection failures
TLS Support TLS not verified or unsupported TLS-RPT Reporting TLS-RPT not configured
⚠️ 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.
