Navigating the Latest Changes in Email Authentication

In the ever-evolving landscape of email, ensuring the security and authenticity of messages is paramount. Google & Yahoo, key players in the realm of email services, have implemented changes to enhance email authentication protocols. We’ll try and distill this down to more plain language and what it means for you.We start with some technical aspects that need to be understood to have an actionable conversation. If you want you can skip down to that chunk, I’ll note it for ya. SPF (Sender Policy Framework): SPF is a widely used email authentication protocol designed to prevent email spoofing. It’s also been around for many many years, so it’s not exactly new per se. Google has introduced refinements to SPF to bolster its effectiveness in verifying the authenticity of email senders. This update aims to enhance the accuracy of SPF checks, reducing the likelihood of false positives or negatives. In brief, Google wants to ensure that when an email comes in from you, it’s from you and not someone spoofing your email account to look like you.
