What is a DMARC record for?
A DMARC record is a security record that protects your domain from spoofing in e-mail communications. It prevents misuse of emails (eg phishing and spam) by allowing mail servers to check whether an email is really sent from your domain or not. In short - DMARC protects your brand and your users from fraudulent emails from your domain, and allows you to see abuse attempts.
