Course: DMARC implementation for technicians

During this course, you will learn how to efficiently implement DMARC to upgrade the security of your email systems. DMARC can protect organizations, customers, and partners against identity theft, spam, phishing and malware.
DMARC sits at the intersection of email and the DNS. This workshop takes you through the technical implementation of DMARC and includes detailed information on the entire DMARC technology stack – DNS, SMTP, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. In addition to technical implementation, the course offers guidance on where technicians can expect to encounter (and how to work with) other teams, vendors, and management layers during deployment.
As preparation for the course, we will ask you to create an account here: https://eu.dmarcian.com/partners/register/dkhostmaster-november-2022 (preferably 2 weeks of data based on a live domain). This will give you data from your own domain for the exercises during the course.
The course is held physically, but it is also possible to participate remotely.
Instructor
DMARC expert Tim Draegen is the experienced instructor of the course. Tim Draegen is one of the authors of the DMARC standard. He chaired the IETF’s working group on DMARC and founded dmarcian, a company that helps other businesses implement DMARC on their email systems.
