Marketers and companies around the globe have been eagerly awaiting the BIMI-standard to advance from Gmail pilot testing to General availability, and in July 2021 it finally happened. This creates great opportunities for trademark owners to further strengthen their brand and reach a better return on their email marketing.With the help of BIMI, your logo can now be seen in the receiver’s inbox. Using mobile devices, the receiver will not even have to open the email to see your logo! Currently, BIMI is compatible with Gmail, Yahoo, and Fast mail, to name a few email clients. Microsoft is currently not using BIMI.In order to use the BIMI standard with most email clients, you need a VMC (Verified Mark Certificate). A VMC validates the right of an organization to use the trademark and the domain. This ensures the receiver that the email is legitimate. The criteria for using a VMC is that you as a company have implemented the security standard DMARC and that you have registered a figurative trademark.At Dotkeeper, we offer VMC through our partner DigiCert, and we can help you with the implementation, purchase, and administration. We also offer services for DMARC and trademark registration, which means we can help you throughout the entire process of getting your logos to display in inboxes around the world. Want to know more? You can read more about the BIMI standard, VMC, and DMARC here.We are happy to answer questions, just call, send us an email, or fill out the form, and we will help you

Allow us to present DMARC – a method for protecting your company against falsified and potentially damaging email. Reports show that spoofing, which is fake email senders or the use of cyber- or typo-squatted domains, is a widely used approach.Apart from establishing (and following) a domain strategy and continuously monitor how your trademark is used, among other places in domain registrations, there is the option of implementing DMARC.DMARC, or Domain-Based Message Authentication Reporting and Conformance, is an email authentication policy and a reporting protocol. DMARC protects against unauthorized use of domains by preventing direct imitation of the domain in emails. It protects the trademark by ensuring that inboxes only receive email that is sent by or on behalf of a domain, by using SPF and DKIM posts. At Dotkeeper, we offer services and solutions to help our clients implement DMARC, and by that increase their email security. Establishing DMARC requires time, data, and continuous adaption (usually over a period of time) to work correctly. We are with you the entire way, from start to finish.The process is split into three phases. The work commences with a pilot study of your email flow to create a custom plan of action based on your needs. After that, the implementation takes place gradually. Finally, there is ongoing reporting in accordance with the agreed-on frequency. The result is increased security for your company, and DMARC is also reported to increase deliverability of your sent email. In other words: exciting news for all marketing departments. Together with our domain monitoring service and smart domain management, a correctly implemented DMARC provides good protection against email fraud for your company.
