Free DMARC checker

What p=none, quarantine, and reject actually mean: p=none observes mail flow, quarantine asks receivers to treat failed mail as suspicious, and reject tells receivers to block mail that fails DMARC alignment.

CHECK YOUR DOMAIN with the DMARC checker, then Open related checker pages for SPF, DKIM, and MX evidence before you change DNS records.

Run full Exposure Report at /exposure-report after the focused DMARC lookup so spoofing risk, TLS, and security headers are reviewed together.

SCANNER-FIRST NEXT STEP: run the full Exposure Report after the DMARC lookup so email authentication, TLS, and security headers are prioritized together.

Why this matters

Check whether a domain has a DMARC record, what policy is active, and what to fix next. The goal is not to create noise. The goal is to turn a visible security signal into a clear next action a business owner, MSP, or IT lead can understand.

Breach Horizon principle
Start with public evidence, explain the business impact, then recommend the safest next step.

What to check

  • Confirm the public signal exists and is current.
  • Record the evidence in a way another person can validate.
  • Separate urgent exposure from normal hygiene work.
  • Link the finding to a remediation guide, tool, or assessment.

Recommended workflow

  1. Run the check or read the assessment criteria.
  2. Save the visible evidence.
  3. Decide whether the finding affects email trust, web trust, identity, backup, or compliance evidence.
  4. Fix the highest-confidence issue first.
  5. Re-test and document the new result.

Recommended vendor category: review recommended remediation options (Breach Horizon affiliate link) after documenting your current state.
