DKIM, which is short for DomainKeys Identified Mail, is an authentication system, which prevents email headers from being spoofed and email content from being tampered with. This is done by adding an e-signature to each email message sent from an email address under a particular domain name. The signature is created based on a private encryption key that is available on the outgoing SMTP mail server and it can be validated by using a public key, which is available in the global Domain Name System. Thus, any email with changed content or a forged sender can be spotted by email providers. This method will heighten your web security markedly and you will know for sure that any message sent from a business partner, a bank, and so on, is legitimate. When you send out messages, the receiver will also know for sure that you are indeed the one who has sent them. Any email that appears to be counterfeit may either be tagged as such or may never enter the receiver’s inbox, depending on how the particular provider has chosen to handle such messages.

DomainKeys Identified Mail in Cloud Website Hosting

You’ll be able to take full advantage of DomainKeys Identified Mail with each and every Linux cloud website hosting packages that we are offering without having to do anything specific, as the necessary records for using this authentication system are set up automatically by our website hosting platform when you add a domain to an existing web hosting account using the Hepsia Control Panel. As long as the given domain name uses our NS records, a private encryption key will be issued and kept on our mail servers and a TXT record with a public key will be sent to the global DNS system. If you send regular emails to customers or business collaborators, they will always be delivered and no unauthorized individual will be able to forge your address and make it look like you have sent a particular message.

DomainKeys Identified Mail in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you pick any of the semi-dedicated hosting that we offer, you’ll be able to use the DKIM option with any domain that you add to your brand-new semi-dedicated hosting account without any manual setup, as our leading-edge cloud web hosting platform will set up all the required records automatically, provided that the domain uses our name servers. The latter is required for a TXT record to be created for the domain, as this is how the public cryptographic key can become available in the global DNS system. The private key will also be added automatically to our email servers, so anytime you send a new email message, it will include our system’s digital signature. The number of unsolicited bulk messages keeps rising each year and rather often bogus email addresses are used, but when you make use of our web hosting services, you and your clients or partners will not have to bother about that.
