How to Get Your BIMI Record Authenticated
In this post, we will guide you through the process of authenticating your BIMI (Brand Indicators for Message Identification) record. BIMI is an emerging email standard that allows you to display your company's logo in the inbox of your recipients, increasing brand recognition and trust. By authenticating your BIMI record, you can ensure that your logo appears consistently and that your emails are protected against spoofing and phishing attempts.
The Authentication Process
Authenticating your BIMI record involves several steps:
- Step 1: Generate a BIMI SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file of your company logo.
- Step 2: Create a BIMI DNS (Domain Name System) record and publish it in your DNS settings.
- Step 3: Verify and validate your BIMI record using the BIMI validation tool.
- Step 4: Monitor and maintain your BIMI record to ensure ongoing authentication.
