Verify domain ownership

Before you launch your organisation's baseline phishing campaign, the first and most crucial step is to verify the ownership of your domain. This step ensures that Prventi can securely and legitimately deliver phishing simulation emails to the email addresses under your organisation's control.

Why Verify Your Domain?

• Security and Legitimacy: Domain verification is a security measure that confirms you have authorized control over the domain. This prevents misuse of the platform and ensures that phishing simulations are conducted legitimately and safely.

• Effective Campaign Delivery: Verified domains ensure that our phishing simulation emails reach your employees without being blocked by spam filters or other email security systems.

• Compliance: Verifying your domain aligns with best practices for legal and ethical phishing simulations, ensuring compliance with various cybersecurity regulations.

Step-by-Step Guide to Domain Verification
