Email Security Checklist for Small Businesses
Email is the lifeblood of most businesses - but it’s also the #1 target for hackers. Use this checklist to secure your email.
1. Use Professional Email
Free accounts look untrustworthy and lack strong protection. See why professional email builds trust.
2. Enable SPF, DKIM & DMARC
These DNS records prevent spoofing and help deliver messages reliably.
3. Use Strong Passwords
Never reuse weak passwords. See our password guide.
4. Enable 2FA
Turn on Two-Factor Authentication for your email accounts wherever possible.
5. Back Up Email Regularly
Ensure you can restore mailboxes in case of data loss or compromise.
