Identity Findings

Malformed DKIM public key for selector 'mandrill'
The public key in the DKIM record is not valid base64.
💡 Regenerate and publish a valid DKIM key pair.
high
NS delegation mismatch
The registrar-delegated nameservers do not match the zone NS records.
💡 Update either the registrar NS delegation or the zone NS records to match.
high
Inconsistent DNS responses across nameservers
Authoritative nameservers return different answers for the same query.
💡 Verify zone transfers are working correctly and all nameservers serve the same zone data.
high
Subdomain policy (sp=none) is weaker than domain policy (p=quarantine)
The subdomain policy is less restrictive than the organizational domain policy, leaving subdomains more vulnerable.
💡 Set sp=quarantine or remove sp= to inherit the domain policy.
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.walgreens.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
Generic ISP PTR hostname: esa.hc2985-66.iphmx.com
The PTR record for 139.138.32.112 appears to be a generic ISP hostname, which can harm deliverability.
💡 Set a meaningful PTR record like mail.walgreens.com
medium
Generic ISP PTR hostname: esa.hc2985-66.iphmx.com
The PTR record for 216.71.138.235 appears to be a generic ISP hostname, which can harm deliverability.
💡 Set a meaningful PTR record like mail.walgreens.com
medium
Generic ISP PTR hostname: esa.hc2985-66.iphmx.com
The PTR record for 216.71.138.235 appears to be a generic ISP hostname, which can harm deliverability.
💡 Set a meaningful PTR record like mail.walgreens.com
medium
Generic ISP PTR hostname: esa.hc2985-66.iphmx.com
The PTR record for 139.138.32.112 appears to be a generic ISP hostname, which can harm deliverability.
💡 Set a meaningful PTR record like mail.walgreens.com
medium
SOA MNAME does not resolve
The primary nameserver (MNAME) 'corp-eqix-ch4-dnscr-001.walgreens.com' does not resolve to any IP address.
💡 Ensure the MNAME field points to a resolvable, authoritative nameserver.
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@walgreens.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
Shared IP 139.138.32.112 used by multiple MX servers
The IP 139.138.32.112 is shared across 2 MX hostnames, reducing redundancy.
💡 Use unique IP addresses for each MX server for better redundancy.
low
Shared IP 216.71.138.235 used by multiple MX servers
The IP 216.71.138.235 is shared across 2 MX hostnames, reducing redundancy.
💡 Use unique IP addresses for each MX server for better redundancy.
low

The DMARC record contains tags deprecated in DMARCbis: ri. Consider removing these for forward compatibility.
informational
DMARCbis psd tag absent
The DMARC record does not include the psd (public suffix domain) indicator. Consider adding psd=n to explicitly identify this as an organizational domain.
informational

Attack Surface Findings

Non-routable IPv4 in public DNS: ns2.walgreens.com → 172.20.4.39
The subdomain ns2.walgreens.com resolves to non-routable IP 172.20.4.39, leaking internal network information.
💡 Remove non-routable IPs from public DNS or implement split-horizon DNS.
high
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 1 record(s)
The DNS server responds to ANY queries with 1 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 email autodiscovery endpoints detected
No Microsoft Autodiscover, Mozilla Autoconfig, or email SRV records were found.
pass
9 subdomain(s) discovered for walgreens.com

informational
0 certificate(s) found in CT logs
Certificate Transparency logs contain 0 certificate(s) for walgreens.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 found and configured DMARC Policy DMARC policy: quarantine
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: quarantine
⚠️ 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 Mail servers support TLS encryption MTA-STS Policy MTA-STS not configured
⚠️ MTA-STS policy is missing. Even with TLS support, you lack the enforcement layer that prevents attackers from stripping encryption (downgrade attacks).
Brand Identity Chain
BIMI displays your logo in email clients, but requires DMARC enforcement
DMARC Enforcement DMARC policy: quarantine BIMI Record BIMI not configured
⚠️ 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 Mail servers support TLS encryption TLS-RPT Reporting TLS-RPT not configured
⚠️ TLS-RPT is not configured. Without TLS reporting, you have no visibility into TLS connection failures that may be impacting email delivery.
