DMARC TempError- What is it and how can this issue be resolved?
by DuoCircle
DMARC TempErrors are the different types of authentication issues in DKIM and SPF policies. These are temporary in nature. Fixing them is important, or they may lead to DMARC failure for your legitimate emails. DMARC is one of the most significant email authentication policies, which enables domain owners to instruct recipient email servers about emails that fail SPF and DKIM checks. A TempError can easily disrupt this process, thereby hampering email authentication and deliverability.
Cloud email security refers to the measures and systems implemented to safeguard email communications against threats such as phishing, spam, and malware. It is crucial for organizations, especially those transitioning to cloud-based services like Microsoft 365, as it helps prevent data breaches and ensures the integrity of sensitive information communicated via email.

It has discontinued the aggregating reporting feature to enhance accessibility and manage costs.
Phishing protection software is essential for safeguarding your personal and organizational data against sophisticated email threats that exploit human trust through deceptive tactics.

How do you achieve SPF alignment to enhance email security and deliverability?
by DuoCircle
SPF alignment is one of those behind-the-scenes checks that decides whether your emails will land in the recipients’ inboxes or end up in their spam folders. Since the fate of your outgoing emails is dependent on this, you cannot simply overlook it or, even worse, assume that setting up an SPF record alone is enough.
Tenant-to-tenant migration in Office 365 involves transferring data, applications, and configurations from one Microsoft 365 tenant to another, often during mergers or organizational changes.
