What does the Anti-Spoofing Policy help prevent?

The Anti-Spoofing Policy is designed to prevent domain impersonation in email, which is a significant threat in email communication. Spoofing occurs when malicious actors attempt to forge the sender's address to make their emails appear as though they are coming from a legitimate source. This can trick recipients into opening emails that may contain phishing attempts, including malicious links or requests for sensitive information.

By implementing an Anti-Spoofing Policy, organizations can identify and block emails that attempt to impersonate trusted domains, helping to maintain the integrity of their communications and protect against fraudulent activity. This proactive measure is essential to safeguarding an organization's reputation and ensuring that legitimate communications are not misrepresented through phishing schemes.
