Recent industry trends suggest MSSP need to offer DMARC monitoring services to increase brand value. Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) and Managed Service Providers (MSPs) provide security services and technological solutions to organizations and businesses that do not run it themselves. MSS or Managed Security Services are services that ensure information/network security that has been outsourced to a service provider. Whether you are an SME or MNC, turning to managed security services alleviates the pressure you face daily due to information security such as phishing attacks, and customer data thefts, and reduces constraints on resources. 

PowerDMARC is on the mission to deploy DMARC authentication services across businesses around the world with our DMARC MSSP program, to make data and information transfer secure, and uphold the brand reputation and credibility.

Why MSSP Need to Offer DMARC?

Becoming a DMARC service provider is more than just extending support to email authentication protocols, it is a key value addition to your brand and the basis of your marketing efficacy. As an industry standard for email authentication, DMARC not only protects your domain from impersonation and spoofing, it improves email deliverability and also strengthens your customers’ trust in your brand. By becoming an MSSP partner you have the authority to add your customer domains to your MSSP dashboard, monitor authentication results, and protect them from falling prey to email fraud.

Why DMARC?

With DMARC, you can help your clients keep their emails safe from phishing and spoofing threats. And you’ll also be able to protect yourself against things like brand impersonation and domain spoofing.

Here’s how it works:

DMARC is an email authentication protocol that allows senders to tell receivers whether or not they are authorized to send emails on behalf of a given domain. When a message is sent with DMARC, it will either pass or fail based on how closely it matches the policy in place for that domain.

If a message fails DMARC, it means that the receiver has decided that there’s something suspicious about the message—like maybe it’s not really coming from who it says it’s coming from, or maybe there’s some kind of malicious intent behind it. This can happen if someone has stolen your brand name or email address.

If a message passes DMARC, on the other hand, then everything checks out—and no matter what kind of spam filter your client uses (or even if they don’t use any), their inboxes should be safe from phishing attacks

How is PowerDMARC’s MSSP Program Different?

Spread Awareness Among Clients

Apart from adding brand value, your role as an MSSP partner is multilayered as you play a crucial part in spreading awareness among your client base regarding information security and impersonation attacks, that not only hamper your brand’s reputation but also compromise your customer’s confidential data and credentials. You can proactively assist your clients in the journey from adopting DMARC and shifting from monitoring (p=none) to enforcement (p=reject), subsequently improving client reputation and boosting email deliverability.

DMARC Benefits for MSP/MSSP

Here’s what you need to know about DMARC benefits for MSP/MSSP:

1. It helps protect your brand reputation by reducing phishing and spam emails.

2. It allows you to easily set up policies based on the categories of emails that you receive, including newsletters, marketing emails, and more.

3. It gives you the ability to easily report on which emails are getting rejected, so you can identify issues early on before they get out of hand.

4. You can use DMARC to send out a “p=reject” policy, which will prevent spam emails from reaching your inbox at all. This is especially helpful if you’re using an email client that doesn’t allow you to delete spam messages without deleting them from your entire inbox!
