FREE PASSIVE CHECK

Run DMARC Checker

Public targets only. No credentials, changes or anonymous active security testing.

What this check does

  • Public _dmarc TXT lookup
  • DMARC record presence
  • Published policy text

What it does not prove

  • No aggregate-report history
  • No proof of actual SPF/DKIM alignment
  • No guaranteed inbox delivery

Interpret the returned state

PASS means the endpoint returned evidence within its named boundary. REVIEW, WARN and FAIL must be read alongside that evidence; they are not automatically vulnerabilities. UNKNOWN means the observation could not establish the answer.

Why it matters

A published policy is one input to a receiver’s authentication decision. Monitoring and enforcement have different purposes; p=none is not automatically a vulnerability.

Common review questions

  • No DMARC record is visible.
  • An unexpected policy should be reviewed against the authorised mail configuration.
  • Moving straight to reject without alignment evidence can block legitimate mail.
TECHNICAL GUIDE

Interpret policy before changing enforcement

Record the policy and hostname observed. A missing record is a review question, not permission to alter DNS.

Compare the policy with your rollout plan. A monitoring policy can be intentional while teams investigate mail streams.

Use authorised mail and report evidence before increasing enforcement. A public TXT lookup cannot tell whether every real sender aligns.
