Strengthen DMARC policy

Change your DMARC policy from "none" to "quarantine" or "reject" for better protection.

Impact: Increases email security and prevents abuse

Add IPv6 support

Request AAAA records from your hosting provider for your website. IPv6 is becoming increasingly important.

Impact: Makes your website accessible to IPv6-only networks

Add CAA records

Define which Certificate Authorities may issue SSL certificates, for example: "0 issue letsencrypt.org"

Impact: Prevents unauthorized certificate issuance

IPv6 for mail servers

Add AAAA records for your MX servers to support email via IPv6.

Impact: Improves email reachability for IPv6 networks

Review verification TXT records

Your domain has many third-party verification records that reveal your tech stack (Google, Microsoft, Atlassian, etc.). Review each one: 1) Remove records for services no longer used 2) Consider if each service really needs domain verification 3) Use a subdomain for less critical services. This is an information disclosure issue - attackers can map your SaaS footprint.

Impact: Reduces reconnaissance surface and limits attacker knowledge of your infrastructure

Enable HTTP/3 (QUIC)

Enable HTTP/3 for faster page loads and improved connection resilience. Nginx: add "listen 443 quic reuseport;" and "add_header Alt-Svc 'h3=":443"; ma=86400'". Caddy: HTTP/3 is enabled by default. Cloudflare: Enable under Speed → Protocol Optimization. Also add an HTTPS DNS record: example.com IN HTTPS 1 . alpn="h3,h2" Ensure UDP port 443 is open in your firewall (QUIC uses UDP, not TCP).

Impact: Faster page loads (0-RTT), better mobile performance, and connection migration between networks
