Root Causes 98: DMARC and Verified Mark Certificates for Email

June 07, 2020

A new kind of identity certificate is coming that will enable businesses to include their logos in official email they send in order to improve customer confidence and protect against phishing. It is called a Verified Mark Certificate (VMC) and is built upon the DMARC standard, which controls which senders are allowed to send email using any given From address.
