DKIM, which is an abbreviation for DomainKeys Identified Mail, is an authentication system, which stops email addresses from being spoofed and email content from being tampered with. This is done by adding a digital signature to each and every email message sent from an email address under a given domain name. The signature is generated based on a private cryptographic key that is available on the SMTP mail server and it can be verified by using a public key, which is available in the global DNS database. In this way, any email message with edited content or a forged sender can be identified by email service providers. This technology will increase your worldwide web safety immensely and you’ll know for sure that any message sent from a business partner, a bank, etc., is an authentic one. When you send out email messages, the receiver will also know for sure that you are indeed the one who has sent them. Any mail that appears to be fake may either be marked as such or may never appear in the receiver’s inbox, based on how the given provider has decided to deal with such messages.
DomainKeys Identified Mail in Cloud Web Hosting
You’ll be able to get the most out of DomainKeys Identified Mail with each Linux cloud web hosting that we are offering without having to do anything specific, as the required records for using this email validation system are created automatically by our web hosting platform when you add a domain to an active account through the Hepsia Control Panel. As long as the specific domain name uses our NS records, a private cryptographic key will be created and kept on our email servers and a TXT record with a public key will be sent to the DNS database. In case you send out regular messages to clients or business associates, they’ll always be received and no unsolicited person will be able to forge your email address and make it seem like you have composed a given message.
DomainKeys Identified Mail in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you pick one of the Linux semi-dedicated servers offered by us, you’ll be able to use the DomainKeys Identified Mail protection service with any domain that you add to your brand-new semi-dedicated hosting account without any manual setup, as our advanced cloud platform will create all the required records automatically, as long as the domain uses our name servers. The latter is needed for a TXT resource record to be created for the domain, since this is how the public key can become available in the global Domain Name System. The private key will also be added automatically to our email servers, so every time you send out a new message, it will carry our system’s digital signature. The number of spam emails keeps rising each year and quite frequently fake email addresses are used, but when you use our web hosting services, you and your customers or associates will not have to worry about that.
