Email impersonation is one of the email spoofing attacks. It forges the email header to deceive the recipient because the message appears to be from a different source than the actual address. To fight against email impersonation, you can map display names with email addresses and check email for the mapping. You can choose whether the impersonation analysis uses manual mapping entries or dynamic entries. You can also use both types of entries.
The default setting is Manual. |
