Enable HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security)
HSTS Header
< 1 hour

The HSTS header is missing on dmarcly.com. Without it, connections can be downgraded from HTTPS to HTTP via man-in-the-middle attacks. This is a straightforward server configuration change.

How to fix this
1Add header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload
2Verify all subdomains support HTTPS before adding includeSubDomains
3Test with: curl -sI https://dmarcly.com | grep -i strict
4Submit to hstspreload.org after confirming the header is correct
TLS Version
TLSv1.3
TLSv1.3 negotiated with TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (256-bit). Strong configuration with no deprecated protocols or weak ciphers detected.
DMARC Policy
p=quarantine
Strengths: DMARC policy set to quarantine; DMARC pct=100 — policy applies to all mail; Aggregate reports (rua) configured; Forensic reports (ruf) configured; SPF hard-fail (-all) configured; SPF DNS lookup count: 2/10 (within limit); DKIM configured (selectors: s1, s2, dkim, mail). Issues: DMARC policy is 'quarantine', not 'reject' — spoofed mail is moved to spam rather than blocked outright.
SPF Record
Present
v=spf1 include:_u.dmarcly.com._spf.dmarcly.com include:servers.mcsv.net -all
Security Headers
0/5 present
Missing: CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy
HSTS
Not enabled
Strict-Transport-Security header is missing. Connections can be downgraded to HTTP via man-in-the-middle attacks. If this domain is in the browser HSTS preload list, browsers may still enforce HTTPS — but the header should be present for full coverage.
SSL Certificate
Valid
Strengths: Certificate valid, 51 days remaining; Issued by Google Trust Services. Note: Wildcard certificate in use (*.domain) — covers all subdomains. Common practice; worth noting that compromise would affect all subdomains.
DNSSEC
Not enabled
Strengths: 2 nameservers configured (jule.ns.cloudflare.com, dean.ns.cloudflare.com); SOA record present and MNAME consistent with NS set; 1 MX record(s) present; Zone transfers properly restricted on all nameservers; Address records present: 3 A record(s), 3 AAAA 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).
