2. When the email framework that you use is not
enough secure, it can fall victim to malware
attacks.
This can make the IP address that you use end
up on the blacklist.
So, how can you avoid your IP address ending
up on the blacklist?
3. TIPS TO PREVENT IPV4 ADDRESSES
FROM GETTING BLACKLISTED
Use Strong Passwords To Avoid
IPv4 Address Blacklisting
Use SMTP Authentication
IP Shield Configuration
Enable SSL To Avoid IPv4 Address
Blacklisting
Configure Firewall
Use Static IP
4. USE STRONG PASSWORDS TO AVOID
IPV4 ADDRESS BLACKLISTING
It is important to use strong passwords to
secure your email framework.
Make sure to strengthen your password using a
combination of lower case letters, special
characters, upper case letters, and numbers.
This can make your passwords very strong and
can prevent hackers and spammers from
cracking the passwords.
5. USE SMTP AUTHENTICATION
SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and
can add an extension that can secure your mailings.
This authentication allows the user to let the server
know that the user has permission to transfer email
messages via the server.
It is not possible for any user to send email messages
through any mail server that they choose.
Mail servers will only let legitimate users send email
messages and so using SMTP authentication will let
you secure your email transfer and thereby, your IP
address.
6. IP SHIELD CONFIGURATION
To accept email messages from authorized sources
in the internal domain of the user, the user has to
customize the IP Shield.
Configuring the IP Shield can help secure the email
transfers in the internal domain of the user and
hence help prevent the IPv4 address blacklisting.
7. ENABLE SSL TO AVOID IPV4 ADDRESS
BLACKLISTING
SSL lets the users encode the link between the
email client and the server.
Without enabling SSL, your website will be
insecure and can fall prey to malware attacks from
hackers and spammers.
SSL certificates are important to ensure the
security of your website and web browsers will
mark your website insecure if your site does not
have SSL enabled.
8. CONFIGURE FIREWALL
You need to use a firewall to detect if any
computer connected to your network is relaying
email messages.
Set up the firewall and keep a tab on all the
outbound activities on port 25 across all the
computers connected to your network.
9. USE STATIC IP
Make sure that your mail server is using a Static IP
address instead of a dynamic address.
If you are using a dynamic IP, the IP address will
change every time there is a power outage.
However, your earlier IP address will still reflect on
the DNS records.
Therefore, it is significant that you use the static IP
address.
