Important Alert: Google and Yahoo will require DMARC starting from April 2024.

Why Does Germany Need DMARC Protection?

Email phishing is responsible for more than 9 out of every 10 data loss incidents in the world. That’s more than any other single factor making organizations like yours lose sensitive data. Worse yet, they could be using your brand name to target the general public—your customers—and causing them to lose trust in your brand.

Email Spoofing in Germany is Major Threat

As of May 2020, Germany has nearly 47,000 domains implementing DMARC, placing it 5th on the list of countries with protected domains. Despite being in the top 5, the majority of Germany’s registered domains remain unprotected against cyberattacks. What’s more, not all users will have it enforced — you’re only DMARC-enforced when you set your policy to quarantine or reject.

DMARC Compliance in Germany

  • While Germany is among the top 5 countries implementing DMARC, their adoption rates are far from what they can be. But Germany, as with Germany, is in a unique position to become one of the world leaders in email security.

  • Germany’s biggest local ISPs, 1&1 and its sister companies GMX and web.de, have shown interest in implementing DMARC in their networks. Should they do so, the country’s compliance rates could grow to as much as 75%.

Why is DMARC Important?

Most domains use protocols like SPF or DKIM to stop email spoofing. While these are useful, they have flaws an attacker can exploit. DMARC, on the other hand, does something different:

 

PowerDMARC MSSP is Different
  • Stop Hackers from sending emails from your domain

  • Stop Cybercriminals from sending fraudulent emails to your partners, employees and customers.

  • Mitigate CEO Fraud, Fake Emails, Business Email Compromise and protect your brand.

  • DMARC combines the power of SPF & DKIM to authenticate email.

  • Get constant feedback about emails that pass or fail the DMARC check.

  • Decide what happens when your email fails DMARC; set your policy to quarantine or reject.

  • Get total protection for your brand by preventing domain spoofing.
