A DKIM-compliant must provide one or more pairs of asymmetric keys, then installs private keys into the signing MTA, and publishes public keys on the DNS. The DNS labels are structured as “selector._domainkey.example.com”, where “selector” identifies the key pair, and “_domainkey” is a fixed keyword, followed by the signing domain's name (example.com, in this example) © 2020 Forcepoint DKIM signing process • The signing MTA uses stored private key to generate a digital signature that covers selected fields of the message header and body, such as “From:”, “To:”, “Date:”, and “Subject:” • Insert the digital signature into the message as a header • Deliver the message to next hop as normal Note: In ESG, smtp service generates DKIM signature and insert it into message as header before deliver to next hop. Add Classification Label: Forcepoint Private | Forcepoint Proprietary | Public © 2020 Forcepoint 17 DKIM verification process • The DKIM-enabled receiving email server extracts the domain from message header “From:” • Query DNS and retrieve the public key, for example: “test1._domainkey.es.com” • The receiving email server then uses this public key to decrypt the hash value in the header field and recalculates the message hash value (headers and body) • If the two values match, it indicates that the mail was truly sent from and the content has not been modified during transport • Receiving email server applies local policies based on the DKIM verification result (content filter) Note: In ESG, filter service is responsible for DKIM verification Add Classification Label: Forcepoint Private | Forcepoint Proprietary | Public © 2020 Forcepoint 18 DKIM Diagram Add Classification Label: Forcepoint Private | Forcepoint Proprietary | Public © 2020 Forcepoint 19 DKIM signature & verification Signature added by MTA Public key stored on DNS © 2020 Forcepoint 20 DKIM signature & verification ▪The DKIM signature consists of a list of “tag=value” parts. ▪ v is the DKIM version. ▪ a is the signing algorithm. ‘rsa-sha1’ means use SHA-1 as the cryptographic hash and RSA as the public key encryption scheme. The encrypted result is encoded using Base64. ▪ c is the canonicalization algorithm(s) for header and body ▪ d is the signing domain ▪ s is the selector. In this example, the FQDN of the DNS is “test1._domainkey.es.com” ▪ t is the signature timestamp ▪ bh is the body hash ▪ l is the length of the canonicalized part of the body that has been signed ▪ h is the list of signed header fields. The DKIM-Signature header field itself is always implicitly included in h, with the value of tag b treated as though it were an empty string. ▪b is the actual digital signature of the contents (headers and body) of the mail message. © 2020 Forcepoint 21 DKIM Configuration on ESG ▪ There is a new setting page to configure the DKIM on Triton Email. (Settings -> Inbound/Outbound -> DKIM Settings) ▪ From this page, we can manage private keys and public keys. ▪ And manage DKIM rules for how to sign the mail messages ▪ We can also enable or disable DKIM for inbound, outbound or internal messages separately. © 2020 Forcepoint 22 DKIM Configuration on Email Cloud Cloud Email Security Policy > Antispoofing > DKIM © 2020 Forcepoint 23 DKIM Cloud Email records These are the Forcepoint CNAME records you must publish in order to enable DKIM signing. Map fpkey11-1._domainkey and fpkey11-2._domainkey to the corresponding values in out.mailcontrol.com. The same DKIM signing domain can be used for all sender domains. © 2020 Forcepoint 24 Brief introduction to DMARC DMARC stands for “Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance”. It is an email validation system designed to detect email spoofing by providing a mechanism to allow receiving mail exchangers to check that incoming mail from a domain is authorized by that domain’s administrator and that the email has not been modified during transport. It expands on two existing mechanisms, the well-known Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and DKIM, coordinating their results on the alignment of the domain in the “From:” header field, which is often visible to end users. It allows specification of policies and provides for reporting of actions performed under those policies. The DMARC reporting consists in supplying feedback to the author domain on how its authentication methods do, thereby providing for informed policy crafting. DMARC is specified in RFC 7489. © 2020 Forcepoint 25 DMARC and email authentication process © 2020 Forcepoint 26 DMARC Configuration on ESG ▪ There is a new setting page to configure DMARC on Triton Email (Settings -> Inbound/Outbound -> DMARC Settings) ▪ We can configure the DMARC verification for the 3 directions separately. The direction is relative to the recipients. ▪ If there are multiple recipients, it’s possible that some recipients can’t receive the message due to violate DMARC checking © 2020 Forcepoint 27 DMARC Configuration on Cloud Email Select Filter inbound messages that spoof external domains using DMARC to detect spoofed incoming messages that appear to be sent from legitimate external domains, but which fail DMARC validation checks. This option validates both the Mail From sending address and the From address. DMARC is built on SPF and DKIM validation and allows the owner of a domain to publish a policy (via DNS TXT records) that defines how the receiver should deal with spoofed messages. © 2020 Forcepoint 28 Business Email Compromise Internal Executive Spoofing © 2020 Forcepoint CLOUD EMAIL - INTERNAL EXECUTIVE SPOOFING The Internal Executive Spoofing feature provides protection against spear phishing attacks targeting individuals within your organization. Such emails may come from legitimate (non-spoofed) email addresses, thereby passing other spoofing checks, but use the display name of a known user (often an executive), with the intention of tricking employees into sending money or information. © 2020 Forcepoint ESG - INTERNAL EXECUTIVE SPOOFING ➢ Protect your self from finance scammers asking to transfer $ while spoofing themselves to C level employee ([email protected]) ➢Very easy to do in our email cloud / doing it on the local ESG nee to create a new filter & regex to identify this C level users. © 2020 Forcepoint ESG – ANTISPOOF Rule Antispoof analysis helps determine the validity of message senders.

  • Research Report Email Fraud Landscape, Q2 2018
    2018 Q2 Email Fraud Landscape The Fake Email Crisis 6.4 Billion Fake Messages Every Day Email Fraud Landscape, Q2 2018 Executive Summary The crisis of fake email continues. Far from being merely a “social engineering” issue, fake email is a direct result of technical issues with the way email is implemented: It lacks a built-in authentication mechanism making it all too easy to spoof senders. However, this problem is also amenable to a technical solution, starting with the email authentication standards DMARC, SPF, and DKIM. For the purposes of this report, Valimail used proprietary data from our analysis of billions of email message authentication requests, plus our analysis of more than 3 million publicly accessible DMARC and SPF records, to compile a unique view of the email fraud landscape. Now in its third consecutive quarter, our report shows how the fight against fake email is progressing worldwide, in a variety of industry categories. Key Findings • 6.4 billion fake emails (with fake From: addresses) are sent worldwide every day • The United States continues to lead the world as a source of fake email • The rate of DMARC implementation continues to grow in every industry • DMARC enforcement remains a major challenge, with a failure rate of 75-80 percent in every industry • The rate of SPF usage continues to grow in every industry • SPF errors remain a significant problem • The U.S. federal government leads all other sectors in DMARC usage and DMARC enforcement www.valimail.com 2 2018 Q2 Email Fraud Landscape Life on Planet Email Email continues to be a robust, effective medium for communications worldwide, and it is both the last remaining truly open network in wide use as well as the largest digital network, connecting half the planet.

    AGARI CYBER INTELLIGENCE DIVISION REPORT H1 2021 Email Fraud & Identity Deception Trends Global Insights from the Agari Identity Graph™ © Copyright 2021 Agari Data, Inc. Executive Summary Call it a case of locking the back window while leaving the front door wide open. A year into the pandemic and amid successful attacks on GoDaddy1, Magellan Health², and a continuous stream of revelations about the SolarWinds “hack of the decade,” cyber-attackers are proving all too successful at circumventing the elaborate defenses erected against them³. But despite billions spent on perimeter and endpoint security, phishing and business email compromise (BEC) scams continue to be the primary attack vectors into organizations, often giving threat actors the toehold they need to wreak havoc. In addition to nearly $7.5 billion in direct losses each year, advanced email threats like the kind implicated in the SolarWinds case⁴ suggest the price tag could be much higher. As corroborated in this analysis from the Agari Cyber Intelligence Division (ACID), the success of these attacks is growing far less reliant on complex technology than on savvy social engineering ploys that easily evade most of the email defenses in use today. Sophisticated New BEC Actors Signal Serious Consequences Credential phishing accounted for 63% of all phishing attacks during the second half of 2020 as schemes related to COVID-19 gave way to a sharp rise in payroll diversion scams, as well as fraudulent Zoom, Microsoft and Amazon alerts targeting millions of corporate employees working from home. Meanwhile, the state- sponsored operatives behind the SolarWinds hack were just a few of the more sophisticated threat actors moving into vendor email compromise (VEC) and other forms of BEC.

    Agari U.S. Federal Government DMARC Adoption: DHS Mandates DMARC for Email Security Executive Summary On October 16, 2017, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued a Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 18-01 that mandates the implementation of specific security standards to strengthen email and 82% of all Federal domains have no web site security. As part of this directive, all federal agencies that operate DMARC policy .gov email domains must implement a DMARC monitoring policy (p=none) within 90 days. Furthermore, all federal agencies must move to a reject policy (p=reject) by 1 year. Based on Agari research of public DNS records, 82% percent of all US Federal Government domains do not have a DMARC policy, leaving their constituents unprotected from phishing and other forms of email attacks 86% of Federal that impersonate their agency email domains. Cybercriminals exploit this domains that use DMARC choose Agari 1 vulnerability by sending billions of phishing emails per year claiming to be from these government agencies. 1 Includes all domains that send aggregate data to a 3rd party DMARC vendor. 1 | www.agari.com Email Abuse on Federal Agency Domains Phishing continues to be a pervasive threat in the United States and around the world.The impact of these threats has been felt specifically by government agencies. Beyond the high-profile targeted attacks that have made headlines, criminals are executing phishing attacks leveraging the brand name of agencies. Indeed, over the last six months, Agari has seen an amplification of attacks against our Federal customers.

  • DMARC: Monitor & Secure Your Email Delivery
    Guide DMARC: Monitor & secure your email delivery Chris Nagele Founder of Wildbit postmarkapp.com Read the web version. Do you know every source of email for your domain? Are spammers trying to spoof your email domain for hacking or fraud opportunities? Are you complying with the best email practices to ensure inbox delivery? These are the questions that DMARC answers, giving you full control of email delivery for your company’s domain. At Postmark, email authentication has been extremely important to us from day one. We believe that anyone should be able to easily send emails with proper infrastructure, tools, and email standards without having to pay enterprise prices. DMARC, and our support of it, is a big part of this mission. 2 What is DMARC? DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance) is a standard that prevents spammers from using your domain to send email without your permission — also known as spoofing. Spammers can forge the “From” address on messages so the spam appears to come from a user in your domain. A good example of this is PayPal spoofing, where a spammer sends an email to you pretending to be PayPal in an effort to obtain your account information. DMARC ensures these emails get blocked before you even see them in your inbox. In addition, DMARC gives you great visibility and reports into who is sending email on behalf of your domain, ensuring only legitimate email is received. The good news is that DMARC is open and free for anyone to use, allowing you to secure your domain’s emails and gain control of your email delivery.
