  • Patent number: 10839353
    Abstract: A system for processing DMARC report data includes a computer configured to collect and process DMARC reports and store aggregated data from the DMARC reports for a domain in a database schema. The computer is configured to store the aggregated data by aggregating a selected number of primary group values, subaggregating by a selected number of group values, linking aggregate sources to forensic sources to find matches, looking up records, and storing configuration issues. The computer is configured to display a user interface that allows for end users to understand DMARC report data and provide administration ability to review and manage Outbound Email Sources.
