Explanation

DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) adds a cryptographic signature to outbound messages, ensuring recipients can verify they haven’t been tampered with and truly originated from your DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance) leverages both DKIM (and SPF) to validate incoming mail and critically provides reporting (“rua”/“ruf” tags) so you can forward delivery, failure, and forensic data to any third-party analytics or threat-intel platform.
