Step 3:
(1) Does it pass the SPF, DKIM,
and DMARC checking? Given
the result, would you trust this
email?
Yes they all pass. I would trust this email
because the mail server was able to confirm
the message was not sent by an imposter.

(2) Use one sentence to briefly
explain why SPF, DKIM and
DMARC can protest people
against spam and fraud.
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are email
authentication protocols that work together to
protect against spam and fraud by verifying the
legitimacy of the sender’s domain, ensuring
email integrity, and providing clear
instructions on how to handle unauthorized or
suspicious emails.

What questions/thoughts/comments do you have at this point? Anything about the lab or
the course in general. For example, which part of the lab did you enjoy/ feel most difficult?
how do you feel about the pace of the class? Questions about reading?
(Bonus points: 1 pt)
I thought the most difficult part of the lab was finding the geolocation. I couldn’t get the
original website to work so I had to find another website that would find the geolocation.
