appliedintuition.com Security Report — Grade B (85/100)

Q: Does appliedintuition.com have DMARC configured?

Yes. appliedintuition.com's DMARC policy is set to 'none'. SPF record: yes. Strengths: DMARC pct=100 — policy applies to all mail; SPF soft-fail (~all) configured; SPF DNS lookup count: 2/10 (within limit); DKIM configured (selectors: google). Issues: DMARC policy is 'none' (monitoring only, no enforcement); DMARC has no aggregate report URI (rua) — policy violations won't be reported.

Q: Does appliedintuition.com have DNSSEC enabled?

No. Strengths: 2 nameservers configured (pete.ns.cloudflare.com, iris.ns.cloudflare.com); SOA record present and MNAME consistent with NS set; 5 MX record(s) present; Zone transfers properly restricted on all nameservers; Address records present: 1 A record(s).

Finish setting up email authentication

DMARC / Email Security

2–4 hours High

Spoofed emails can still reach your customers and partners until this is fully enforced. Email authentication for appliedintuition.com is partly set up, but there are gaps: your DMARC policy is set to monitor-only, so nothing actually gets blocked yet. Until it's fully in place, someone could still send a convincing fake email pretending to be you.

NIST SP 800-177r1§4

Trustworthy Email recommends SPF, DKIM and DMARC for every email domain

How to fix this

1Change your DMARC policy from "none" to "quarantine" in your DNS settings (you're using Google Workspace — see https://knowledge.workspace.google.com/admin/security/set-up-dkim) — this moves suspicious mail to spam instead of just watching it happen. Your current record with just that change:

v=DMARC1; p=quarantine

2Double-check it's live: search "dmarc record checker" and enter appliedintuition.com.

High Priority

p=none

Strengths: DMARC pct=100 — policy applies to all mail; SPF soft-fail (~all) configured; SPF DNS lookup count: 2/10 (within limit); DKIM configured (selectors: google). Issues: DMARC policy is 'none' (monitoring only, no enforcement); DMARC has no aggregate report URI (rua) — policy violations won't be reported.

Likelihood: ★★★☆☆

Impact: ★★★☆☆

Medium Priority

Warn

Issues: No MTA-STS configured — email in transit is vulnerable to TLS downgrade attacks; sending servers cannot verify your mail server requires TLS; No TLSRPT record (_smtp._tls) — TLS delivery failures won't be reported to the domain owner.

Likelihood: ★★☆☆☆

Impact: ★★★☆☆

Not enabled

Strengths: 2 nameservers configured (pete.ns.cloudflare.com, iris.ns.cloudflare.com); SOA record present and MNAME consistent with NS set; 5 MX record(s) present; Zone transfers properly restricted on all nameservers; Address records present: 1 A record(s). Issues: All nameservers are from a single provider (cloudflare.com) — a provider outage takes down the domain; DNSSEC not configured — DNS responses can be spoofed or tampered with in transit (DNS cache poisoning).

Likelihood: ★★☆☆☆

Impact: ★★★☆☆

Best Practice

Warn

No CAA records found in the DNS tree for this domain. Without CAA, any Certificate Authority can issue certificates for this domain. Adding CAA records restricts issuance to authorised CAs only, reducing the risk of misissued certificates.

Likelihood: ★☆☆☆☆

Impact: ★☆☆☆☆

4/5 present

Missing: X-Frame-Options

Likelihood: ★★☆☆☆

Impact: ★☆☆☆☆

Warn

No security.txt found. Publishing a security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt is the industry standard (RFC 9116) for vulnerability disclosure policies. Its absence may indicate a less mature security program.
